George Remus Straight Bourbon, 47%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2018 ● Reviewer: Fred Minnick ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
Cotton candy, caramel, baked apples, roasted pecans, freshly baked rye rolls, and herbs start a truly approachable pour. Its story opens in a spice race: cinnamon, nutmeg, turmeric, and smoked paprika and a slight hint of coffee. A burst of dill hits, just before vanilla walks it home to a lovely, medium finish. An interesting sipper, but remarkable in cocktails.
