Got a special "barrel program" bottle from my fav retailer. Their metal label w/Fred's signature. 12 yr. proofed at 129.1. Fruit, nuts, and cedar nose. Butterscotch toffee, cherries, and oak taste. Beautiful orange color with a little fall brown. Complex with hints of other favorites and stout rye tingle that lingers long on the finish. Hope the SB keeps the age statement (9yr). Delicious!
