Had the Ezra 90pf and enjoyed it quite a bit. Great value. Saw this on closeout for $17.99 so why not. Neat, color is several shades darker than the 90 pf. Has good legs and glass coat. Noses caramel, vanilla and some dusty resin... fuller than the 90. For 101pf ethanol is not an issue. Palate is similar to EB90 with nutty caramel, pepper and oak but extra proof and age have amped it up. Carries more heat for sure but sweetness is increased, This is similar to Old Forester100(not as good though), I like it. Medium finish with cinnamon nutty oak and caramel. Not as dry as EB90. Its bolder and deeper with the 101 kick. For the money this is excellent. Ezra Brooks is a can't miss imo 90 or 101. Overall this is better than the standard 90pf imo(I did side by side tasting). I appreciate the extra age, robust flavor bump and lessening of dryness. 80/100.......... However, I can understand going with the 90pf as it is less $$ and still very good.

Sad that this disappeared in my area before I could get a bottle. Love the 90 Proof and have that on hand always. Can pick that bottle up for $8-$9 if timing sales right at our grocery store.
Yes it was a closeout price in NH state liquor store.......havent seen it since
At that price I would go back and get some back ups! This great bottom shelfer is now no more! Great review and cheers!
