I’ve had Full Proof before, I want to see how one of my local store’s (Centerpoint) single barrel pick of Full Proof fares against the standard issue. This one is noticeably darker in color when comparing it to the regular Full Proof. Let’s see how it differs. The nose has rye, barrel char, corn, oak wood shavings, raisins, plumbs, peanut can dust, baked bread and brown sugar. The palate has a nice oily texture but it also dries the palate. There’s honey sweetness with rye and baking spices, cooked apples, oak and slight bitterness. The finish is long with and initial burn that tries to come up the back of your nose. There are lingering oaky notes with rye and peanut dust. When comparing the standard 1792 Full Proof side-by-side with this particular store pick, the store pick is really good. It accentuates the fruit notes, which I enjoy and also has more depth overall. Great job to one of my local spots in Hendersonville, TN!
