Michter's 25 Year Kentucky Straight Bourbon (2020 Release)

Nose- Bananas Foster, Carmel and oak. There is also some cherry too. Palate- Oak and a large bit of ethanol too. This was drying and tannic Finish- Medium to long, drying and a bit biting. Overall- I had high hopes. A once in a lifetime pour for me. Too tannic and hot. The flavors were condensed. Tried a bit of water which just dried it out more. Regardless of the price, hype, and wanting this to be good.....you can find way tastier for a fraction of the price.

Oh what can I say. Started out as a sweet bananas foster with a medium oak finish but as it opens up it turns into a massive honey bomb. I can’t believe this is a 25yr. Absolutely incredible. Top 2 pour for me, could be #1 if I were able to revisit it more often if I had a bottle
