A double from the White House in Aspen
Very sweet on the nose (in a pleasant way).
Totally unique. My first impression is a dryness on the lips. Long pleasant burn after finish, retaining a dry filmy feeling on the roof of my mouth. It’s flat across the pallet, with the primary flavor being white grapes on the back of the pallet. There are hints of woody, spicy, rye flavor too. If I chew it I get the Carmel flavor I like from higher proof bourbons, but it’s accompanied by some bitterness. Overall, I’m glad I tried it, but won’t do it again.
