Cap ‘n Cork Barrel Pick
Nose: Astringent, strong alcohol on the nose with some cinnamon. I also get a whisper of berry
Edit: with more tastings, I get a pronounced chocolate covered cherry flavor. On my second bottle.
Palette: very sweet with vanilla, berry, along with oak, and tobacco. Medium burn that does not mask the complexity.
Finish: lingers with little burn. Lasting flavor of vanilla and some cinnamon.
Overall, I like this barrel pick. It is an approachable sipper with nice flavor. It may benefit from a higher proof, but 90 doesn’t disappoint.
