Review and Tasting
Sampled on 19/12/2015
Appearance:
(sample from single bourbon cask No.21, bottle No. 001/460) Clear, golden amber.
Aroma:
Sweet corn, toasty oak, dried fruit, cream-of-soda vanilla and elegant Christmassy spice. More vanilla and toasted almond with water.
Taste:
(with water) Viscous mouthfeel. Faint honeyed sweetness offset by dry oak tannins with rich vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon and cracked black pepper spice.
Aftertaste:
Long, dry toasted oak finish with lingering nutmeg and cracked black pepper spice.
Overall:
A chance to own a piece of liquid history, and a pretty tasty piece at that with dry toasty oak tannins balanced by rich vanilla with enlivening nutmeg, cinnamon and cracked black pepper spice.
