Very Olde St. Nick 8 Year Estate Reserve Kentucky Bourbon Whiskey

I've toyed with buying this bottle several times. Frankly, glad I didn't. My experience at Preservation is two fold. Their lower proof items are watery and uninspired. The full proof items are worth a visit. Here I get coconut, vanilla, mint & black pepper. But overall, watery with a finish that was lacking. Especially for an 8 year Rye. We've all over watered our glass once or twice and there is no going back. Well, that's this whole bottle.

Nose: cherry licorice Palate: it’s odd in a good way. it changes. First sip I got cherry. Second sip I got the Carmel and vanilla and all the spice. Finish: the finish lingers and coats the tongue. Overall: I paid 170 for this bottle. Is it worth 170? I don’t feel many drama are worth that much. This one is solid. At the cost and the availability is a bit ridiculous to actually buy another one. At most this should be a 90 dollar bottle. That being said. 4/5 solid pour

Excellent caramel flavor, very smooth finish. Sweet and light on the palate.

Unbelievable!!!
