This is a fantastic bourbon, definitely something worth trying and adding to your collection. Its rich sweet corn and oak flavors seem to blend perfectly to make this New York Straight Bourbon a force to be reckoned with. It has a long, resonating, and very pleasant finish that will leave you very satisfied.
NOTE: this is for black dirt single barrel 59.8%. smell: lemon vanilla wood. taste: strong taste that is hard to describe. anise? sweetness. caramel. toasty?
Really heavy oak at the start. Though I loved it at first, but after a few drams I've cooled off on this one.
The description is accurate. It has a strong flavor and can stand up to ice.
Dirty indeed. Still enjoyable. 80/100.
Taste like Black Dirt. Pass next time.
