BRT-02, 2022, tasted neat.
Rose brown color in the glass with strong coating legs. Dried fruit and cereal grain on the nose with vanilla oak notes. Oak, char, smoke, toasted cereal, vanilla, and caramelized sugar in the mouth. Rich and dry spice and a little ethanol blooms. Finish is earthy and dried fruit sweet and tannic. Ethanol and mint spice tingle lasts a good time.
Really rich and complex set of flavors that play well together in this bourbon. Takes the Makers Mark flavor profile up a notch with more pronounced oak flavors and a darker color.
Ice isn't necessary, but tempers the tannic oak and mint and lets the sweet reign.

Anyone else having trouble with lagging keyboard and freezing and crashing on this new app? Seems like there's a problem having the keyboard setting Predictive Text turned on. I'm typing this note as a test to help the app developers fix this problem, something that is mentioned prominently in all the recent Google Play reviews. Looks like turning off Predictive Text in the Keyboard setting has fixed it--and that should show them what they need to do on their end to solve this.
