BevMo barrel pick. Nutty corn dust up front on the nose with a backing of oak, honey, and ethanol. Peanuts and brown sugar are dominant on the taste and they fade into a cloyingly sweet honey finish. Not much to complain about here, for my personal preferences I would have loved for some cherry that I can’t seem to find. The finish lingers for days, with the nutty corn dust popping back up a bit. Really good, especially for the price. I think the ECBP is more well rounded and more in my wheel house. This one is a welcome change of pace though, throwing some more elbows and bringing a nice nuttiness that just isn’t there in the EC stuff. You can’t go wrong picking this up.
