Tasting Notes:
Nose: The first thing you discover is a sweet caramel aroma, followed by a warming allspice lift, a sprinkling of citrus and a hint of oak.
Palate: It offers caramel and allspice which together present an excellent flavor as the mildly silky liquid crosses the tongue.
Finish: The allspice remains for a longer caramel finish.
"The first Kentucky Owl release under master blender John Rhea, this bourbon drops the high proof and price point typically associated with Kentucky Owl for something more approachable a blend of bourbons ranging from 4 to 8 years old. Green apple candies, cinnamon stick, buttered popcorn, and sage on the nose. Ginger spice and sweet bubble gum notes intertwine on a creamy palate along withblackberry tart and cocoa powder. Candied raspberries on the finish are matched with a sustained spice that lingers" - Ted Simmons, Whisky Advocate (92 Points)
