Neat. Sample. B&B Package pick. I was disappointed in the Full Proof I bought. Not sure if I got a weak barrel or if it’s just good but not great bourbon overall. This sample may help change my mind.
Right off the bat, this nose is more impressive. Lots of good, sweet oak. Cinnamon bread. Powdered sugar. Nutmeg. Glazed apples. It’s very crisp and inviting.
Nice creamy mouth feel and very pleasant in the tongue. The proof feels tame. It’s almost a chocolate milk. Transitions to an amazing combo of cinnamon bread and cherry preserves. Rich caramel and sweet oak on the finish. Very sweet finish.
Okay, now this is really good. This raises the bar a bit for Full Proof for me and confirms my bottle is just not a great barrel.
