Barrell Bourbon Private Release Blend of Straights (CSX8), 57.05%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2023 ● Reviewer: Julia Higgins ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
Soft citrus on the nose—freshly peeled orange is joined by delicate clementine. Linger over the glass for hints of grape juice and vanilla bean; the citrus will not be ignored. A silky smooth palate starts with spearmint and quickly turns bright and energizing, giving of black tea with lemon, pine needles, and candy-cane sweetness. This delightful medley of flavors carries on straight through to the end. A delicious sipper from start to finish
