Michter's 20 year old Bourbon 2016, 57.1%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2017 ● Reviewer: Fred Minnick ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
Gorgeous dried apricot, peach cobbler, vanilla custard, plus a hint of cherry-flavored pipe tobacco. Rich, layered, and rounded caramel, with hints of cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, and allspice. Then earth, and lots of it, over a slightly chewy mouthfeel of caramel chew and Red Hots cinnamon candy. Medium finish counters wonderful bouquet and palate notes, but still lovely for sipping.
