About this bottle

This is the first expression in the brand's Fifth District Series, honoring historic distilleries in Central Kentucky. This one is a nod to Cold Springs in Nelson County, where Log Still Distillery now stands. It consists of a single barrel selection of bourbon matured a minimum 6 years and bottled at 100 proof.

GS001 3.5

Series 01, barrel #41 Nose: Caramel, some alcohol Palette: sweet, apple pie, creamy Finish: moderate, spice but sweetness continues Enjoyable bourbon. $75 may be a bit too much, but enjoyed it. Will have to blind it with some others. At 100 proof, it probably doesn't stand up to barrel proof options at $60-80, but will still be a good every day sipper until I finish the bottle.

Nose: molasses, rock candy, honey dew, marshmallow, cinnamon, coconut. Palate: sweet but a lot of nose characteristics don’t show. Mincemeat seasoning, pepper and cherry pie. Finish: extended finish with cherry and a pleasant burn.

MSA941 2.5

Very light on the nose …. a bit of roasted peanut. Taste is very mild but just not a lot there. Very short finish. Nothing offensive but really nothing to get excited about especially for the price point.

Ian Young 3.5

Nose- sugar and a hint of lemon Body- light bodied with sugar and lemon, has a hint of candy Finish- dry with a hint of brown sugar remaining Reminds me of many Heaven Hill products.

Jowers 4.5

Excellent full body and fantastic aroma and taste. Loved it as it had absolutely I think nothing harsh. I had over a couple cube of ice….just great the whole time.

LingoShane 4.8

Lots of caramel. Light and not very complex but a really pleasant drink. Slight citrus. Decent warmth on the finish.
