Milam & Greene The Castle Hill Series Bourbon Batch 1

An interesting bottle. Surprisingly spicy, given the age, but it’s a high proof. A beautiful deep color, it absolutely coats the glass- almost oily- with legs that linger even after the bourbon is gone. Nose is ethanol and vanilla, unless you let it sit for awhile. Then it opens up with some cherry and maple syrup and a bit of tobacco. The longer it sits, the more it smells like vanilla pipe tobacco. Mouthfeel is oily and thick (no surprise given the legs). Taste is slightly fruity without being sweet, with some cinnamon spiciness from the high proof. Notes of peanut butter. The spiciness is tamed with a couple of drops of water, but it becomes slightly bitter, almost like toasted walnuts with some cherry. The oak is evident after water is added. Finish is is long and chocolate (before water), and oak and vanilla (after). This is not a very sweet bourbon, but it’s complex, pleasant and interesting.

Millam & Greene The Castle Hill Series Batch 1 Wow!!!! Incredible sweetness that lures u in Palate more sweetness Chocolate Peanuts Finish is Flawless long and tasty... Dickel is recognizable Have to rate between 4.25 and 4.5/5 This is cask strength A blend of 20 incredibly well picked and well blended barrels

Excellent boutique bourbon. Very oily mouthfeel that hangs around long after the liquid is consumed. Initially I got orange and cherry that matches the nose but as it subsides it gives way to tobacco and possibly vanilla. I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes a unicorn bottle in a few years.

Mature with a strong alcohol hint that turns into deep dark flavors such as a tart black cherry… Really lovely balance, for sure a great glass that for experience is amazing. Another quality bottom by Milam & Greene

Great, deep notes of maraschino cherry, fig, and milk chocolate.

Smooth finish, great caramel, spice undertone.
