1792 Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Small Batch 750ml

Information / Tasting :
Rye spice, vanilla, and caramel pull through an undertone of ethanol. A trace of oak
lingers underneath. The potency of the ethanol suggests a higher proof than it is, and
overall the aroma is unrefined. It doesn’t invite me in for a sip, but doesn’t quite
deter me either. Rye spice along with sweet vanilla and caramel solidify their presence
leaving no other flavors hiding underneath. The mouthfeel is satisfying, as the bourbon
is slightly more chewy than average. Like the nose, the potency of the palate also suggests
a higher proof than it is. Rye spice, vanilla, and caramel present themselves again in the
medium length finish. Spice leads the charge, while the sweeter flavors take over as the
flavors decay. Dark fruit makes a brief appearance, but it’s alongside the general “sweet”
note.
