How am I first? Anyway.
Nose - classic barton's with apples, cinnamon, and some cherry. Nice sweetness that then leads into oak. Now I get some butter and some funked oak. What can I say it's classic sourced barton with a hint of savory elements, touch more oak, and everything I like about them.
Taste - It opens soft and sweet. Fruity elements of apples, light spice comes in , and then oh goodness smoked oak. Such a nice wonderful smoked oak. Vanilla cream meets cherries meets caramel meets this butter scotch in the most creamy yummy form.
This is possibly my new favorite barton blend/sourced deal. It's really good and at 150, I'm pretty dang happy. I say this fully thinking some old carter single barrels I loved weren't as good and I was happy spending more.
God 3.5 people. This is an instant buy up to 200. It's a bit coyingly sweet up front but the finish saves that. It's not perfect and I can see a few bourbon drinkers passing, but this is awesome.
