Four Roses Single Barrel Bourbon
Bourbon — Kentucky, USA
Reviewed
January 23, 2016 (edited November 30, 2016)
Nose - Delicious initial nose of cherry and vanilla, hint of oak, hint of butterscotch, and the longer you smell, the cherry turns from the natural fruit into that of cherry cough drops or cough syrup.
Taste - A thin, yet oily mouthfeel if that's possible. Hints of cherry, vanilla, very subtle cinnamon and nutmeg. Transitions into a slight fruity bitterness like that of an oversteeped black tea. Darker/red pit fruits, like all of them mixed together make an appearance with the bitterness.
Finish - Quite nice and pleasant gentle warming feeling from the higher proof. Lingering bitterness of the oversteeped tea, but then the presence of dark bing cherries and vanilla make an appearance as your mouth starts to salivate again.
