Taste: 2 oz, neat in Glen Cairn. Nose: (4.5) Full of caramel, and concord grape jam. It is sweet, rich, and full of sweet stewed fruits. Palate: (4.5) Grapes, apples, vanilla, and chewy taffy. There is a sweetness about it but not overdone. The mouthfeel is thick and coating. Finish: (4.25) Finishes for days. The grape jam precludes an almost fig-newton type aftertaste. There is a bit of oak that comes in that lets you know this has some age to it. Overall: This is a great pick! Apparently 11 yrs., 6mos is the perfect time to rest a delicious single barrel OESO. I cant wait to try the other Binny's select picked barrel recipes I got on this release. OBSQ is my next bottle to open once this one is gone. Can't wait to do a side by side comparison and then pick one after sampling blind.

Bull and Bush single barrel pick, 2023 - Denver, CO T8ke: 8.3 Nose has a creamy caramel / brown sugar with a dark fruit sweetness. A bit of a charred oak note too. Some light grassy note as well, but not off putting at all Big round sweetness opens up on the flavor - brown sugar, caramel with a cinnamon spice. A deep dark black raspberry, grape, plum, strawberry (super jammy) around it. Great medium-long finish that leaves everything hanging. Really good overall. Inviting, complex, and satisfying through and through
Nose: soft floral nose Palette: chocolate forward, great thick body, concentrated brown sugar, some spicy pepper in the back palette, long finish with more brown sugar, some cinnamon, and frosted flakes. Maybe a hint of sweet orange as well.
