A decent bourbon that rounds up over time in the bottle. Sweet taste with hints of caramel and vanilla. Works fantastic on an Old Fashioned. Shame it's just a tad over-priced here in Finland.

General description

What a nice bourbon ... Was in to pick up a bottle of 4R Small Batch and found Single Barrel on the shelf. I secured a bottle and am glad I did. More complex than the Small Batch. May be a bit over priced at $41 USD, but I will add notes as the bottle expires.

Nose

Floral, but it works! Strong butterscotch, followed by brown sugar and light vanilla.

Palate

Toasted Oak up front followed by toffee, dark cherries and vanilla.

Finish

Almost a light medium finish; it is hard to believe this is a 100 proof bourbon.

Everyone is going to hate me. I was utterly disappointed by this bourbon. I expected a lot more. Perhaps it's because they haven't had 8 year old buck at half the price. It's still a pretty good bourbon. Everything initially reminded me of Buck Bourbon, except the fact that Buck is more well balanced and way smoother. Pun intended.
