Color: So comparing this Kentucky bourbon to it’s 10 year old brother, it’s obviously and noticeably lighter. The color is an old gold in my Glencairn glass and the legs are very thin and watery. Nose: The nose possesses lemon zest and orange notes, caramel, barn hay, and a hint of car exhaust. Taste: The taste is pretty basic. Nothing worthy of writing home about. A little oaky tannins, some leftover Halloween caramels that nobody wanted, with some green grapes and grapefruit as well. Finish: The finish is dry with an almost dry white wine aftertaste. Leaving also an almost “sparkly” mouthfeel. Thoughts: This bourbon is decent. I'm glad I tried it; It won't be a favorite of mine or anything, but if you look at the brand as a whole, it kinda makes sense their bourbon won't stand out on its own because they are a brand that specializes in flavored whiskeys. Now for the most part that's not my thing, but if it's yours, these are your people! I'm afraid though Bird Dog’s entry bourbon though isn't really my thing. Sorry guys!
