Neat. Gallenstein #1. Neck pour. Very similar to Blanton’s on the nose. Vanilla, charred caramel, baking spices, honey graham cracker.
Thicker than expected for being 80 proof. It’s rock candy sugar on the tongue. Vanilla frosting with a slight hint of the charred caramel. That honey graham cracker comes through more on subsequent sips. Odd after taste though. There is this musty note that lingers very slightly on the legs that throws me off.
All in all, this is what I expected. It’s a solid, light sweet treat. A good intro whiskey. Hard to say it was worth the $50 beyond the novelty of the beautiful stopper.
