Obligatory banana note on the nose. Then caramel and nuts. Peanut. Vanilla cream. Dusty wood, cedar, pecan shells. Seems a little hotter on the nose than I think it should be for 50%. On the palate, the sweetness of the typical JD profile is somewhat muted, which I appreciate. Banana nut bread. Some fruit, apple, apricot. I can get some of the rye especially on the finish. Cinnamon and nutmeg. Maybe some honey coming from the malt.
I like this better than the new Bonded release. More interesting, less sweet. I also like this at the $28 I paid for the liter size bottle. Wouldn't likely rebuy at the normal going rate, which around here seems to be $45+. But I'll enjoy this bottle.

@Ctrexman Agreed! Just opened my third bottle. Not as good as first two, but still excellent.
I just opened a 132 pf single barrel.....just fantastic still cant believe its from JD
@PBMichiganWolverine @soonershrink @LouisianaLonghorn for the price, comparatively to the Old No. 7, which will be here till Armageddon, for the price and, from I read, the relatively good+ reviews, this seems to be a no brainer (cost, quality against No. 7). Just riffing…
@soonershrink @LouisianaLonghorn totally agree, the cs single barrels are a buy on sight thing, the rye is amazing, but unfortunately priced too high
@LouisianaLonghorn the cask strength single barrels are really great. Haven't been able to try the CS single barrel rye, but I hear it's even better.
Both these new releases seem to only be garnering middling to average reviews. My consensus is that we should stick to the single barrels. Thoughts?
