Tasting Notes

Nose

A lot of ethanol, even for a whiskey at more than 103 proof. Underneath the booziness, however, you find brown sugar and molasses. It doesn’t come across as complex whiskey – just simple, straightforward, and sweet. Like the Bradshaw bourbon, there’s a lot of ethanol here. On top of that, you get a healthy snout full of spice initially. Also apple slices, ginger, turnips, and, interestingly, a hint of an old gymnasium.

Palate

You can tell it’s a high-rye bourbon, but the spiciness isn’t overwhelming. Think Crème brûlée, vanilla, and brown sugar cake with brown sugar glaze. The finish is relatively short, with just a hint of the rye spice lingering in the back of your mouth. Final thoughts: Nobody’s going to the Hall of Fame for this whiskey, but that’s a high bar. For the price, this is a perfectly acceptable Kentucky bourbon. Given the sweetness and lack of layering, it would probably be ideal for mixed drinks.
