MOORE STREET OYSTER BAR SOUTHPORT PICK
Barrel No. 20-250... Barreled 7/31/15... Bottled 6/12/20
*NOSE: Pours into the Glencairn a great Mahogany color and features notes of Brown Sugar, Citrus, Dry Oak, Cinnamon, Savory Spices, and Cocoa Powder.
*NEAT: Syrupy, Clingy Mouthfeel yields Slightly Bitter Citrus, Oak Tannins, Dry Weathered Oak, Brown Sugar, Medicinal Cherry, Cinnamon, Hay, and Black Pepper. Warm Building Finish reminds you it's 105 Proof leaving behind a nice layering coating of Cherry, Cocoa Powder, and Tannins.
*SPLASH: Gives the Palate a "Buttery" quality and reduces the Medicinal Quality of the Cherry note. Be careful, though. Too much water and it picks up a youthful "corny" note.
*VERDICT: Very Fairly Priced, Overproofed, Non-Chill Filtered Single Barrel. Young, but Tasty. It's rare that you find decently priced high proof MGP that is worth the money. This is one of those rare instances. Keep in mind, it's a Single Barrel so YMMV, but based on this barrel, I can recommend this one without hesitation.
