14 year and 8 month old pick from Discount Liquor in Nashville, TN
Nice dark color. Noticeably darker than another KC SiB I have (9yr).
Nose has caramel, cinnamon and other baking spices, oak, brown sugar, red apple, and leather.
Palate is rich and slightly oily with plenty of oak and baking spices. Nice old leather makes a nice appearance as well as a little rye and corn. I also get some of that Jim Beam nutty character, along with some cherries.
It does dry the palate a little bit, but that’s common for the proof.
Finish is long with lingering oakiness and a slow burn down your chest.
This is fantastic! I would put this up against many other quality barrel proofs like it’s brother Bookers as well as Stagg Jr, Elijah Craig Barrel Proof. At this price point ($45) it is unbeatable!
