Fresh crack at a bottle share. Had this next to batches 2 & 3. It finished 3rd but we felt that this will open up. It was the sweetest and hottest of the bunch (no surprise on the heat). It’s a solid batch, but price creep is real. Final verdict: Glad I have it, but wouldn’t seek out a backup.
Very nice nose on this one. Another Russell’s hitter! Cherry on the front end with a nice solid burn going down, full of flavor
One of the better if not best batches. The extra proof is evident in the complexity, and the finish is great.
Sweet barrel spice nose. Spiced, candied nuts and oak. Soft but lingering finish.
I know it's not as old as the other batches, but it still brings the oak
Nose: cola, oak Palate: vanilla, earthy,toffee
