Yellowstone Select
*NOSE: Worn Leather, Wood Shavings, Orange Oil, Rye Spice. Simple, but Solid.
*NEAT: Grainy & Leathery with Light Oak Spice at first sample. Additional tastes reveal Dry Caked Cornbread, Burnt Marshmallow, Pencil Shavings, and Orange Peel. Mild KYHug with Oak and Citrus coating the Palate.
*SPLASH: A little water brings some sweetness into the mix with a Hint of Pink Bubblegum.
*VERDICT: If you're not in the mood for sweet, you could definitely do worse than this. I think it's overpriced at $40 (I'd take Knob Creek, Longbranch, Eagle Rare, EW or 4R Single Barrel, etc at this price every time) but not a bad bottle at all. My understanding is that this is Heaven Hill blended with some of their own distillate. An entirely different experience from their Hand Picked Selection Bottles which are sourced from Barton, but more on that later...
