Bulleit 10

Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: Bourbon

Bottler: Diageo

ABV: 45.6%

Score: 91 Points

The oldest Bourbon yet from Bulleit, but still distilled at Four Roses (unofficially, since Four Roses has never confirmed Tom Bulleit’s statements). The nose is rich with toasted rye bread and oak, honey, a hint of orange peel, vanilla, and molasses notes. The taste is thick and spicy with cinnamon, honey, maple syrup, orange peel, and a hint of dark chocolate. The finish is aromatic with sweet honey and maple syrup and a hint of dark chocolate bitterness that adds balance. Very nice. (January, 2013)
