Bardstown Discovery Series #4, 57.5%
Price: ● Issue: Summer 2021 ● Reviewer: Susannah Skiver Barton ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
Powerful aromas of blackberry cobbler, brown sugar, honey, baking spices, cola, peanuts in the shell, and hay loft give way to a muscular palate that, despite its big oak character, never becomes bitter. Zingy lemon oil, dark berries, cola syrup, espresso, dark chocolate, and roasted peanuts fill out a chewy mouthfeel. The finish has excellent length with rich flavors of chocolate, coffee, roasted nuts, and spices.
