Absolute delight from nose to finish.
Carmel and fruit on the nose. sweet on the front end with tabaco, Vanilla, and dates or dark fruit. It has a very clean finish.
nose is fruit, alcohol, cereal, palate is mouth coating, pear, malty, but disappeared almost instantly, finish is hot and lingers but difficult to pull specifics from, some spice pulls through and it mellows nicely, it's very easy to drink but very little nuance
1792 Bottled-in-Bond thinly coats and clings to the glass and has an oily and smooth mouth feel.
1792 BiB is underwhelming.
The scents are a bit light.
Sweet clover honey comes through.
Trace of oak underneath on the intial draw, but after the first sip, fresh cut cedar presents.
No alcohol burn on the nose.
No initial taste sensation, but an overwhelming and warming alcohol presence is followed by rye spice and seasoned wood which overtakes the sweeter notes sensed in the nose making for a spicy sip. Subsequent sips bring forth a sweet nuttiness: pecans, pine nuts, coupled with cloves, nutmeg, and powdered ginger, but the sugars are gone.
A warming sensation lingers, but all flavors are gone.
