Giant French Oak Barrel 19 year old, 45%
Price: ● Issue: Winter 2012 ● Reviewer: John Hansell ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
My favorite of the two [Buffalo Trace Experimental Collection Giant French Oak Barrel]. Surprisingly sweet, with layers of caramel, butterscotch, nougat, and subtle creamy vanilla. This whiskey defies its age. A blend of dried spice on the nose and the finish of the palate balances the sweetness. A very enjoyable (and drinkable) whiskey. Price is per 375 ml.
