Woodinville Straight Bourbon, 45%
Price: ● Issue: Spring 2016 ● Reviewer: Lew Bryson ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
Good bourbon nose—oak, corn, allspice, a little sweet citrus—but some solvent notes flitting around too. Feisty in the mouth; warming, punchy oak, softer pillow-thumps of corn, and some bitter rye notes. More rye comes out as it sits. Finish is long and warm. Good young bourbon; priced like a good older bourbon. Craft still presents some hard choices.
