Review transfer from Barreled from May 2016 An unexpected pleasure coming off of a recommendation from a friend. This is the non-barrel strength version, barrel # 75-4P. Signature dark copper/bronze I've come to expect from quality bourbons with longer maturation periods. 50% ABV, not sure if it is chill filtered. Toffee, butterscotch, oak spices, maple and caramel dominant on the nose with what I think is a bit of mint or menthol and vanilla peeking around the corner and of course the corn sweetness that comes with most bourbons. A very complex and lovely nosing bourbon. A bit hot on the palate at 50% but nothing excessive. Burnt toffee or caramel is the dominant palate flavor, but red fruits come through later in the development. The finish has a decent length and is dryer than expected. Not quite as good as Elijah Craig in my opinion which is my benchmark bourbon, but it's not far behind. EC is about $12 less so that plays a part as well. Still a very high quality bourbon that I will go back to. 4.5
