Uncle Nearest 1884 Small Batch Whiskey (Sourced Whiskey)

Light aroma. Sweet with a little spice. A bit of a bite as it lingers, oily on the upper palate. Pecan, maple, and coconut.

Let it breath a bit and a really nice finish.

Fairly simple. Light vanilla nose. Toasted nut. Peacon? Almond? Sesame seed?

Tasted blind Aroma: muddled, nutty, cherry Flavor: almost minerally, maybe dried nuts, citrus, and a little bitter oak Overall: It was hard to pick out flavors since it was so muddled and so light.

A solid, refined whiskey. Nose is vanilla, sugar and a hint of cherry. Palate is light and a bit spicy: more vanilla, cookies, a touch of honey, cereal, oak, a little rye spice. Weak finish is only real downside - no real final act in terms of flavor. Overall it's pleasant and easy to sip. Look elsewhere if you want a barrel-proof flavor blitz. Could stand to be aged longer, I suspect. Doesn't quite meet the hype, but still a tasty smooth sipper.
