Davidson Tennessee Whiskey
NOSE: Much better than the Bourbon. Traditional Tennessee Notes of Bananas Foster, Maple, Hazelnut, and some Char. A little of that youthful Corn I found in the 4 Grain is present, but not enough to spoil the overall experience.
NEAT: Nice Coating Mouthfeel. Brown Sugar, Maple, Hazelnut, Light Oak Tannins, and a building TNHug. Banana and Oak Char coat and layer the palate.
SPLASH: Turns the nose to all Maple & Brown Sugar. Palate gets a little Grainier with a Dry Cornbread note. The Char is amped up on the finish.
VERDICT: So much better than the 4 Grain Bourbon, it's hard to believe they came from the same distillery. I really wanted to trash this one too because of the lack of response after contacting them months ago regarding the broken corks and getting zero response, but I can't in good conscience do that. But...just like the Bourbon, judges give an automatic quarter point deduction for broken corks and crappy customer service.
