Review from bourbonv (BourbonEnthusiast Review ID 223, Created:20050721161504, Updated:20090517193055) | Purchased at: | estate sale | | Info on this bottle: | Distilled at DSP 2 Louisville, Ky (Bernheim) bottled DSP Ky 16 (Stitzel-Weller) about 1990 | | Proof Of this Bottle: | 100 | | Nose: | Buttered toffe and corn with a hint of fine leather and oak. | | Taste: | Sweet vanilla and corn husk with a little spice - cinimmon and nutmeg. No alcohol burn but a pleasant warmth in the throat leading into the finish. | | Finish: | Sweet vanilla and spice that last a good long time, leaving you with a taste for more. | | Overall: | It is easy to see why this was the best selling bonded bourbon in the early 1990's. It is a great drink straight and would also make for a great cocktail. |

| Purchased at: | Middle Tennessee | | Purchased for: | $5 for 200ml | | Info on this bottle: | This one was distilled by Old Charter (Louisville) and bottled at Stitzel-Weller. | | Proof Of this Bottle: | 100 | | Nose: | Basic bourbon: vanilla/maple/oak. Maple prominent. | | Taste: | First taste is a combination of maple sweetness and alcohol heat -- the heat enough to hold off the maple till mid-palate, where it blooms. Some citric astringency nicely balances the sweetness without leaving a souring aftertaste. | | Finish: | Short, but positive and bold. There is a nice blast of alcohol/menthol freshness that lingers in the mouth, but doesn't follow the swallow. | | Overall: | This is 'swayback' bourbon: strong entry and finish (however short), with soft, palate-pleasing sweetness in the middle. Hard not to like it, but not memorable. |
