A sample gifted from the "Whiskey Transfer Program" from dthom. A very complex whiskey with the signature Beam nutty flavors that I've come to expect. Nose: Musty wood, butterscotch, a slight raisin scent, and heavy ethanol (no surprise given the proof). The prevailing smell? Bubblegum like Big League Chew. Flavor: This doesn't bite as hard as the proof would suggest. Sweet vanilla, dried fruits like cranberries, and brown sugar. Finish: Peanut Butter. Lots of peanut butter and then sandalwood and tobacco mixed with cloves that tastes kind of like a clove cigarette. It finishes strong with more chunky peanut butter. The finish is the best part here for sure. My first foray in to the Booker's world and I like it. I'd definitely try more though the price point is a little steep.
