TX Straight Bourbon Tawny Port Finish

Not as good as the sherry casked version. The base bourbon is far more readily apparent and the port notes are subdued. I was hoping for a little more wood and a smoother finish

Nose: Raisins, Salted Caramel, Blackberries, Milk Chocolate, Vanilla, Raspberries, Luxardo Cherries, Plums, Dark Chocolate, Maple Syrup, Cloves Palate: Caramel, Vanilla, Raisins, Blackberries, Peaches, Maple Syrup, Leather, Pecan Pie, Cinnamon, Dark Chocolate, Finish: Dark Chocolate, Raisins, Dates, Prunes, Salted Caramel, Morello Cherries

That’s got oak and dark fruit to it. The palate is extremely rich and fruity. Mocha is prevalent on the mid-palate. I also got a little caramel drizzled cannoli for some reason. It finishes long and steady.

Baking spices up front, followed by candied cherries. Good, mouth coating finish.
