Review and Tasting

Sampled on 27/06/2024

Appearance:

Clear, deep golden amber.

Aroma:

Toasty oak with caramel, vanilla, harvested barley, cinnamon and clove.

Taste:

Spirituous and baking spices are followed by toasty oak, barley, vanilla and zesty lemon.

Aftertaste:

Lemon notes are more obvious in the long finish, particularly with a splash of water.

Overall:

A splash of water opens this pleasing bourbon, which is one of the few and indeed the best-selling bottled-in-bond bourbons. Evan Williams also stands out for its combination of quality and value-for-money.
