Nose... It's as if someone just baked Blondie's and not brownies as a treat. The aroma of carmalized sugar, butter, cinnamon and salt creating a liquid desert... Appearance... A light to medium copper poured neatly... Taste... The cereal grain is apparent. Breakfast Oats are up front with the corn forward but balanced. It has a nutty and old wood flavor. Finishing the overall profile is a nice hint of sweet fruits... Overall... For the price I paid for this Binny's handpicked Single Barrel, it's a STEAL. It's full of flavor and the proof is perfectly set for pouring itself neatly. A great value and definitely something that will keep me coming back. I really don't know the age statement but it appears they've taken their time with this KSBW...
