One of my consistently favorite bourbons, pretty much regardless of the season: ECBP series. This is the B520 at 127 proof, $70 retail. Neat or the smallest piece of crushed ice I find in the drawer. Nose: Heat heat and tingles initially, unless you are backing down from something with even higher proof. Once it settles in, it goes to a nice cinnamon raisin chocolate swirl Bundt cake undeniably and consistently. Palate: nice lengthy finish with the heat coming on the front end. After the main coat, it packs some complexity with Dark chocolate walnuts, some pepper for the spice. Added the smallest crushed ice cube I could find to the 2+oz pour and came back to it to get more of the baked cinnamon spices along with the initial darker chocolate. It certainly bested the ECBP A120 which I had to proof down, and unfairly had more complexity than the new EC Toasted Barrel. Rating: 4.5/5 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗
