Binny’s “BP” Pick 109 proof
3 Baked American Pure 2
3 Seared French Cuvée
1 Maker 46
2 Roasted French Mocha
1 Toasted Oak Spice
Neat from a Glencairn glass. Bottle has been open for a few months.
Nose is oak, corn, baked bread, maple syrup, vanilla. Something slightly herbal in there Sweet, woodsy scent.
Heavy oak, charred spices on the palate with burnt caramel and brown sugar. Something herbal again but can’t quite put my finger on it. Oily but not too thick.
Heavy oak and spice on the medium long finish. That oak just lingers on the tongue, reminds me of Woodford Double Oak with a coffee like taste that hangs around.
Conclusion: Very oak forward, spicy bourbon with minimal sweetness. Something different for the shelf but slightly overpriced IMO.
