I picked up another bottle of this one, as it seemed like they’ve been disappearing from local stores. Maybe the secret is getting out. I managed to get this one for only $41 with a coupon. Barrel #746, barreled 2/17, bottled at 61.3 ABV. This one seems different enough from the first barrel I tried that it deserved its own review.
On the nose I get sweet wood with a slight smoke. Slightly earthy. Campfire s’mores. The palate is sugar-crusted weathered leather.
The first one I tried had more fruit. This one is much more oak forward, more dry, less sweet. Still good and I’ll be a repeat buyer as long as I can find it, but I think I prefer the previous barrel I had.
