Bourbon — Kentucky, USA

NOSE: Dense dried dark fruit, musty-funky-grapey almost rum-like notes, brown sugar, toffee, oak, vanilla custard, candied citrus and bits of baking spice. It would be easy to tell someone this was a rum just from the smell, there is such a weird funky note to I immediately thought of the Foursquare 2013 Habitation Velier.
PALATE: Sticky dark fruit, oak, vanilla custard, candied citrus, herbal spice, chocolate licorice, charred nuts and a touch of musty funk. While the nose might fool some folks, the palate of the Woodford Reserve Baccarat Edition, likely, would not. This is a dark, and slightly funky, fruity bourbon profile.
FINISH: Med-long -> Dried dark fruit, oak, cocoa, copper and char fade out dryly to a chalky note.

@PBMichiganWolverine Yup
@TheWhiskeyJug so...it’s all just a really pretty bottle with juice that’s easily bought off the shelf for $80-100
