Wilderness Trail Family Reserve Single Barrel Cask Strength Bourbon (High Rye Bourbon)

Store Pick, 113.7 proof, great bottle really enjoyed it!

Liquor Barn store pick 17E09-8 Nose: smells sweet. I think I smell cherry. Palate: spicy. Not much else to it other than spice. Finish: very long finish. A little funky. Water?: better with water. Reduces really long funky finish.

Spicy and a nice kick

4..0+

It’s good but there’s nothing that makes this standout so it falls into the “middle of the pack” group

Pick: Star Liqour - 701 E Mohave St, Phoenix, AZ 85034 Age: 5 years & 2 months Barrel: ISC Barrel No: 753152 Rickhouse: B-E15-M10 Yeast Strain: 921 Proof: 106.18 Nose: Very “clean” on the nose. Almost rememiscent of a Pine-Sol without the chemicals. The nose is just bery pleasant. Earthy Rye with a balance of brown sugar and fruit. Very pleasant. Palate: Rye Spice immediately. Although your classic rye palate, it is much more mellow and almost sweet. Notes of cracked black pepper and burnt brown sugar pair nicely to balance each other out. Finish: A pleasant blend of rye spice and bread before giving way to charred oak. The finish is one of the weaker points of the sip, but still pleasant. Thoughts: One of my first Wilderness Trail experiences, and my first bottle to own. Have no regrets on the store pick, and will definitely look for this again in the future.
