Wade Lyn Ranch Barrel Proof

The label on my bottle says 120 pf, Barrel 30, Age 4yrs. Nose is full of youth and there's a lot here I don't normally associate with bourbon. Almonds, toasted oak but in a burning green wood kind of way, Ovaltine. As it opens up, it becomes more and more Ovaltine, then chocolate breakfast cereal. Reminds me of Corsair Ryemageddon on the nose. Tastewise: this is weird. I don't hate it, but... I don't like it. Pros: low burn for proof with a long finish and gentle heat that lasts. It does have a Nesquick or Ovaltine quality, like many of the whiskeys with chocolate rye malt do, despite the lack of rye. Cons: tastes young, a bit thin, and really strange. I know rye is replaced with oat in the mashbill. I don't know if oat is to blame for this artificial quality or if it's the youth. I think it's the youth. This needs more time. I can't recommend anyone buy this as a bottle before trying it. But I've had worse for $35

I’ve been trying to give this bottle away since I took the first sip. If you like it, it is yours. So far no takers. Just terrible. They should feel bad about making this.

This beverage taste like turpentine. Avoid at all cost
