2017 release of EC18. The new bottle is an improved sleek design from previous years. A seasonal release at $130 this bottle can be difficult to find. Nose is wet cherry wood, citrus fruits, vanillans. Light body and feel. Palate of citrus and dark fruit, dry bark and wet tobacco. Finish is soft. Over all and interesting great bourbon without a strong bite. Another great EC product, I do prefer over the 23-yr as I feel any more age is too woody. Keep drinking friends.
