Barrel No. 1500120B, bottle 29 of 230. My quest to try all the current bottled-in-bonds continues.
2oz neat in Glencairn at home. Nose is a like a liquid candy bar, with caramel and cocoa and nougat, some light spice and grains on the tail. Smooth and rich. Taste is radically different, with spice and oak completely dominating a now more subtle caramel and vanilla. The aftertaste lingers briefly, and ends on a dry-ish note. This is an odd one, with the nose like smooth jazz and the taste like hair metal. Both are fine and have their place, but you probably shouldn't do a mixtape alternating the two. I will say that it is interesting as hell. 8/20/2020
