The Justice 14 year old Barrel-Proof Straight Bourbon, 47.1%
Price: ● Issue: Summer 2020 ● Reviewer: Susannah Skiver Barton ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
The nose is thick with peanut brittle and peanut shells, blackberry cobbler, grape jelly, allspice, dried ginger, and mint and other herbs. Beautifully mature flavors on the palate: cooked plums, raisins, and dark chocolate mingle with integrated oak, with peanuts bringing up the rear. Silky, especially in the finish, which fades almost too quickly to relish dark chocolate-covered cherries, peanuts, and smooth oak. (2,000 bottles)
