The ghosts did it. They got a bottle in my local liquor store. 3 to be exact, and I got one of em. In the past I was very impressed by their single barrel Sauternes finish. I hope this is the beginning of a beautiful thing between Boone County and my honey hole.
Nose is very sugary, in a good way. I get syrup, cane sugar, and mild caramel. Delicious.
Body is juicy. I get tangerine and salted caramel. I really enjoy that combo, and it just makes your mouth water, wanting more.
Finish, on the other hand, is dry. The salt lingers and is joined by a mild spice, something like baking powder.
This is genuinely good. This small batch has the swagger of a single barrel and I have nothing but high hopes for the future of this 5 year old distilling company.

I haven't had this one, but the 12 yr was solid, I was sorry to hear it had been discontinued.
