Pick by Bull City Bourbon Club; Named "Gooey Pecan Pie" Warehouse J; Floor 3 64.2% abv; 128.4 proof Open 1.5 months Nose - Fried bananas, molasses, caramel, orange infused chocolate, crème brulee, freshly oiled leather, charred oak, light grain and grass, and a surprisingly medium ethanol. Palate - Banana bread pudding, spicy charred oak, burnt caramel, toffee, cocoa, light peanuts, light orange peel, cinnamon, black pepper, and medium ethanol. Finish is medium-long with toffee, stale banana bread, caramel, oak tannins, black pepper, and stronger ethanol kick on the back end. This was the most anticipated pick we've had for BCBC in the last year, and for good reason. Old Forester single barrels of any type are very difficult to find in North Carolina. They're not easy to find generally. But here's why you should not bother with the hunt, and you definitely should not pay a secondary mark up. Brown-Forman has another product that is cheaper, easier to find, and better. That is Jack Daniel's Single Barrel Barrel Proof. Compared to JDSBBP, OFSBBP is less sweet and has more dry oak flavors. It also tastes watery and less chewy in the mouth despite the similar ethanol content. If you, like me, love that mouthcoating banana and syrupy sweetness from JDSBBP then this is a mild letdown. If you like stronger charred and sweet oak flavors, then I'll point you to Elijah Craig Barrel Proof. In my opinion this is what you get if you blend JDSBBP and ECBP, then add a few drops of water. I still have some ECBP C921 on hand, it's really similar except C921 has a richer, older oak flavor profile and a smidge more of caramel. Don't get me wrong, I like this a lot. I just think the readily available $70 Jack Daniel's and Elijah Craig barrel proof bottles are better if you are searching for this high proof flavor profile. **I know this is a single barrel, but I've seen a lot of review variance for these OFSBBP picks so I trust my club got a decent barrel.**
