Woodinville Straight Bourbon

Re-scored this one. Guess I had to much to drink prior to trying this. It’s just ok

This bottle seems to have appeared overnight in every shop around town. My sister picked this one up at the recommendation of her local shop, but I am a bit skeptical so let's see where this trip down the rabbit hole takes us.... Nose is a bit rough with heavy ethanol fumes. There are some hints of sweet corn trying to come through, but the ethanol keeps beating them back like an old surly boxer kicking a rookie's ass in the ring. Let's move on to the taste. Well.... I have to be honest here and say that I feel this is what gasoline might taste like if I ever decided to take a swig. It is a bit oily and heavy on the ethanol. I am honestly having a hard time finding a kind word on this dram. Hard pass if I see this on the shelf and recommend you do the same!

Dusty and peppery. A little water opened it up, and then tamed the pepper a little.

Big wood flavors, sugary with some dark fruits and a bit of cinnamon. Overall it’s a solid drinker
