This week has been a great week for me. First I got my very own bottle of Maker's Mark The Heart Release and now a new Blood Oath: Pact 10.
A fresh Blood Oath release is always cause for celebration. Yes they are super hyped and typically sell for astronomical values over RRP but its worth it to try to catch a release at launch and pay close to RRP.
The nose is deep and swimming with rich, velvety sweetness. Caramel and vanilla provide a luscious bath for the fruity cherry scents ushered in with a little bit of smokey charred oak. My God what a nose on this one... can't wait for the taste.
The taste begins on a nice sweet bed of Caramel. Its soft and not cloying at all. There's a slight twang of tart and sweet cherries about mid taste. As the taste moves toward the finish it dries up a bit with some tannic oak and tobacco.
The finish on this release is full, long and satisfying. That cherry on the taste is pretty prevalent especially after a few sips. It's tart and viscous like cherry preserves. There is a little bit of the oak and tobacco experienced at the end of the taste but overwhelmingly the finish is sweet and fruity.
WOW! I like this as much, if not more than Pact 9. Bitter tannins, sweet fruit and caramel... it really does these flavor profiles right. Pact 10 is still available at or near RRP in most stores, do yourself a favor and GET A BOTTLE. It is one of the best I've had.

@whiskeyfart I’ve read really good reviews on this. I think it being the “10” designation, they probably put in their extra best effort
