Picked this one up based upon recommendation from a local liquor rep and hats off to him. This is barrel 7385678 for Crown Liquors in IN. For the $30 and 107 proof this is a damn good bourbon. Taste was neat in glencairn.
Nose - sweet vanilla frosting, orange, oak, and candy corn.
Palate - nice texture good coating, front end sweet with a punch of vanilla and toffee, mid palate moves to orange, little bit of apple, and not a super strong oak flavor but a woodsy note, back end a big burst of cinnamon and spice, between the mid to end get a little bit of a spiced apple.
Finish - that cinnamon spice and pepper really hangs on for a minute or two then starts to mellow out goes back to apple, little bit of oak and orange.
Barrel picks obviously can vary a bit, but this particular barrel for $30 a no brainer. Good flavor and a really good amount of spice, doesn’t burn, but has a legit cinnamon and pepper flavor on the back end, thankful for the recommendation and well done Ezra Brooks/Lux Row. Cheers!
