(Total Wine single barrel pick) Fresh corn fades to black cherry, overbaked banana bread and dark chocolate on the nose. I'm getting caramel soaked cake (tres leches comes to mind) with vanilla icing on the palate. Hints of overripe banana. There's a brief buttery note. The flavor and mouthfeel can support the alcohol content here (125 proof). Finish is corn husk into a grassy spice rounded with a soft, almost chocolaty barrel char, then lingering corn. The raw corn on the initial nose and tail end of the finish is a little overpowering and ultimately smothers some delicious notes along the way. I'm not disappointed for $40, but this is probably best used in a cocktail.
