A generous taste courtesy of Pie Chef Guy.
I had always thought you'd have to do something along the lines of battling a dragon in order to get a bottle of this. Somehow Pie Chef Guy got one. That in and of itself is impressive, but I digress.
This is the penultimate granddaddy of bourbons (metaphorically speaking).
The nose is full of salted caramel, sweet chocolate and peanut brittle. A bit like walking into an old family owned candy shop.
The taste is even better. It tastes just like fresh baked sugar cookies from grandma, apple pie crust, and light vanilla with just a sprinkle of unicorn blood.
The finish lasts with wonderful flavors of vanilla, honey and warm apple cider.
Simply put, this is easily one of the best bourbons I have had the pleasure to drink, or be in the same room with.
