O.F.C. Vintage Bourbon 2006

A bourbon whose delicacy demands it be savored in isolation of all other stimuli. One of the most rewarding noses i've ever had the luxury of enjoying. Second pour from the bottle(still not below the neck) into a copita and allowed to sit for 20 minutes before first sip. Elegant. Complex. Fulfilling, with a finish that last long enough for a walk around the block afterwards... (i exaggerate slightly). I had doubts on the first dram but none remain after this. Slainte.

The nose is a good bourbon profile, brown sugar and fruit. The flavor is mainly fresh corn, minimal oak. Short finish with modest oak. Reminds me a little of Doc Holliday, but proofed down. Easy drinker, not tannic or ethanol-ey. I don’t think the price is justified by the quality of the bourbon. I had some PVW15 after, and it was more enjoyable by quite a bit. Do better, BT.
