Nose
- Cherry, oak, and vanilla right away. Pretty soft nose. A little bit of burnt sugar and caramel too.
Palate
- Little bit of the cherry and caramel that quickly heads for the oak. Some cinnamon too.
Finish
- The finish lingers on the oak notes for a while but the oak gets a bit bitter (Granted this was a pour from the bottom of my bottle so I won’t hold it against it).
Mouthfeel
- Not much to report here. Pretty tame. Not dry.
I may be being a bit harsh on this bottle since it’s been low for a while and I needed to kill it, but it didn’t wow me. I remember it tasting better before when it was full so take this review with a grain of salt. I thought it was good in the nose, fine in the palate, and then things slowly fell off from there. I do enjoy the Whiskey Row line from Old Forester but 1910 and 1920 are above this for sure. Could be better. Could be much worse. Try for yourself.
