Neat. First time back to this bottle after a few weeks on the shelf opened. Nose presents itself as classic Beam. First note was a nuttiness. Digging deeper reveals vanilla and preserves. There is a lovely lightness to it.
Mmm, hitting me right tonight. Maybe this opened up because this is a different experience to me. The flavors on the taste runs the exact reverse of the nose. Preserves and vanilla blast and they Give way to the nuttiness. Legs are a red velvet and last a decent length for a 94 proof.
I dismissed this at first but it’s a beautifully balanced whiskey. Getting a higher score this go round.
