Bourbon — Kentucky, USA

Color: deep Golden bordering brown
Legs: fast forming but gentle ride down the sides of the glass
Nose: toasted oak, Carmel, subtle vanilla, sugarcane or toffee
Body: my first reaction is sweet and spicy, vanilla comes out strong to me, not a lot of burn and touches each part of the tongue without much harshness.
Finish: a little more powerful than I was expecting for a 107 proof. Also, spicier than I was expecting given the sweetness on the nose and body.
I really enjoy Beam products and this didn't disappoint but it didn't blow my socks off either. A different type of daily drinker.
Would buy again and will keep in rotation for awhile.

My bottle is 8 years, 6 months old: barreled 01-2011 and stored in warehouse CL-D. Starting to show a bit more vibrancy than when first opened, hopefully it will approach the level of your bottle. We will do a blind comparison to see if in fact my bottle is borderline mediocre, or if my palate is off, or my expectations too high.
