TheWhiskeyJug 3.0

EYE Amber NOSE Pine, honey, fruit, graham, banana’s foster, marshmallow, and a light cakey note. The pine is super present… but not in a bad way. It’s like walking out on my porch (I live in a cabin on a mountain). PALATE Banana taffy, pine, vanilla, graham, wax, and a grainy sweetness with a touch of cake. Ok, not what I was expecting. The palate is quite a bit different than the aroma, but not terrible. FINISH Medium -> Herbal pine, caramel, graham, grainy sweetness, and saline.

nikbuys 3.8

Nose: pine, grain whiskey sweetness, cherry hard candy. Palate: umami, nice fragrant and sticky pinewood, a decent salinity, caramel and brown sugar. Light orange zest as it transitions to finish. Finish: getting bourbon/grain whiskey finish.

coffee8cups 3.3

Nose of unfinished pine and bright hard candy. Tastes of a Speyside-like wildflower honey imbued heavily with sawdust. Basically just tastes like drinking a young Speyside scotch in a lumber yard.

LCannon57 3.3

The bottle spins! Also, it’s good. The woody, piney taste is prevalent. It placed 8th in the 2023 Birthday Boy Bourbon Tasting. (I ranked it 7th.)

MunroeShume 4.3

Nose of sea salt. Body of cherry blossoms. Finishes with forest pine trees.

Spritig lukt med lite sötma och spritig smak men len i eftersmak.
