Colonel E.H. Taylor - Barrel Proof Bourbon 6th Release (128.1 Proof)

Eye: Orange gold. Thin rims and thin legs, droplets coat the glass.

Nose: A nice BT nose, beautifully subtle bourbon. Baked goods, caramelized brioche crusts.

Palate: Astringent - strikingly so right up front. Followed quickly by red fruits and dried fruits, not too much spice. Rounds out nicely, but the heat sticks around too long. Mouthfeel is medium bodied and filling, also quite astringent.

Finish: Oak takes over the palate and there’s not much else to be tasted.
