Had this on my must try list. I’m very familiar with Founder’s brews, especially CBS and the KBS expressions. I love them all, so I was very excited to finally find this for under $200. After getting a cocoa note on the nose, I couldn’t wait to taste it. But other than that nose, and a slight chocolaty flavor during the finish, I don’t taste the KBS at all. Hoping maybe this will change over time, and the flavor I’d expected to find will show up. It’s not a bad bourbon at all, maybe a little thinner than I’d hoped, just not what I expected.
2/22/23 - Revisited this bottle this evening to see if the KBS finish was more apparent. Unfortunately, it wasn’t. I get some classic bourbon sweetness on the nose, but it doesn’t carry over to the palate. Still thin also, and finished this time around with a fair amount of ethanol burn. Still disappointing.
