So galenstein selection 7
109 or so price point.
Nose - I get bread dough, vanilla, citrus candy, and oak.
Taste - Simple, sweet, vanilla, a bit too much spice (cinnamon/red hot). It's a nice whisky up front but the spice has over powered the sweet. There's that wheat character.
So any good? Yeah, it's good.
Is it worth 110 bucks? hell no!
This is a very nice whisky that is unique and in that i think us geeks will be ok with 109 or so bucks for, but frankly unless you want overly hot, cinnamon, and fankly not overly well aged whisky...maybe you like it?
2.25 - it's above average, but there's some nice quality here too. Boone County does well with MGP casks for the age, but no 6 year bourbon is special.
This is bourbon vs wheat whisky and higher proof, but frankly I think the woodford wheat is about on par or better, not sure what I scored the wheat but I'd assume it's better. This does justify more price even if not as good due to proof.
