General description

My first touch on bourbon. I was really excited to try this one since all of my whisk(e)y experience has consisted of scotch.

I firs decided to taste it without water.
On the nose it has caramel, vanilla, and strangely carrots? Never have smelled carrots before from a whiskey. Oak is quite dominant as well, but not too much.

On the palette, woah, the strong 50 % ABV kicks in. Oak is very dominant, as well as the caramel & carrot flavor. From the taste I also see now the difference between older and younger whiskeys. This being the youngest whiskey I have tasted, it is more dry and The finish is shorter. Maybe after oxidizing for a while it might taste different.

After adding some water the smell is way more familiar to the scotch whiskies, the carrot flavour changed to even more caramel. The taste is also more complex now, and has somehow liquorice background. But still, quite dry and short after taste.

This introduction to bourbon was definetly interesting. I might need to let the liquid oxidize for a little bit to get more out of it, but it definetly showed me the differences between scotch and bourbon, from which, at least now, I still prefer the first one.

Nase: mega viel Karamell, super süß, Alkohol für 50% doch relativ mild, ein paar Gewürze, leichter Klebstoff

Gaumen: überraschend milder Antritt mit der Süße aus der Nase, weicht aber schnell Pfeffer und anderen Gewürzen. Der hat richtig was zu bieten.

Abgang: hier kommt erstmals der Alkohol stärker durch, leichte Schärfe und Holz.

Fazit: Single Barrel Amis kannte ich bisher nur den Jack Daniel's, der dem von Four Roses nicht annähernd das Wasser reichen kann.

Another very enjoyable one coming from Four Roses. A bit more feisty and complex than the regular bourbon. A bit less smooth aswell,
though it gets smoother as it sits a while.
Apple, maple syrup and vanille on the nose.
Oaky, spicy and medicinal. Very oily with a warm and pretty long finish.

The further the bottle empties the better I enjoy this one. Getting really accustomed to this one, definitely my favorite Four Roses

I get cherries and oak on the nose. Notes of oak, rye, and wood spice. Medium bodied, doesn't quite coat the mouth the way I would like. Finish is dry, medium in length, and mainly oak. Very enjoyable.

General description

Really good. It is a little hot, but I really enjoyed it anyway. Will try to keep on hand from now. Maybe just the batch I got but lots of cinnamon in this one but enough sweet to go with it. 

Nose

A little ethanol but not enough to turn me away and it does improve very quickly. Then it's kind of subtle with vanilla and oak.

Palate

Surprising after nosing with lots of flavor. Again, maybe it's just the batch I got but cinnamon jumps out at me making it pretty spicy as well as a little rye spice. It reminds me of fireball candy in a subtle way because once your through the spice some sweetness comes through as honey/brown sugar. Finally just a touch of bitter charred oak. Mouthfeel was pleasent maybe just a little hot on the tongue. 

Finish

Medium but nice, a little burn but that's not to say it's harsh. Spicy and a touch bitter

Great whiskey, very similar to other bourbons though. A lot of pleasant aromas, like vanilla, clementines and black locust flowers, with deep oak and butter notes.

Nose

Very sweet and pretty. Vanilla and clementines, with the added perfume of black locust flowers, very similar to the distinct smell of the tree in front of my house in spring.

Palate

Simple with a lot of oak. Surprisingly pleasant for its lack of complexity.

Finish

Oak, with butter notes appearing later in the finish.

Orange fruity nose.

Floral and more fruit in the first sip. Citrus and vanilla back for the finish. Pepper and some spice at the end of a medium long finish.

This particular pour is from a good bottle. However, my memory says the small batch I sampled a few months ago may have been a bit better. I tried neat, then with a splash that opened up sweetness. I tried with a few rocks and messed up. I found in a rocks pour, most of the good complexity dissapeared. The good news, this 100 proof dram is neither hot nor fiery nor spicy. It drinks neat very much like an 80 proof-er but with 100 proof flavor. Find another 100 proof SB that delivers all this for $39.(regular price $42)

Immediately sweet, Carmel/toffee. No oily mouthfeel. Mild Kentucky hug, medium finish. Much more refined then their lower offerings. It doesn’t taste like liquorice - but has a similar sweetness.

Nose

Some alcohol burn, slight barnyard scent - but like a fresh barnyard, not manure. And light wood. Like wood you’d use to start a campfire. Fresh and light.

Palate

3 out of 5 for oily feel. Warm and burnt Carmel with a toffee sweetness. Crisp apple on the back burner.

Finish

Carmel’s and toffees. Light wood - cedar. Think a candy corn if it was aged...

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.

General description

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.

Spicy with a good taste at a great price. Add a single ice cube to lessen the harshness.

Great whiskey for a bargain (€30)! spicy and Sweet with An 'Oily' mouthfeel. Better than the standard or small batch cousins and is a standard bottle you need to have in your collection! served well with Just a couple drops of water.
