Kentucky Bourbon Hall of Fame distiller Jim Rutledge selected the barrels for this 14-year-old Bourbon. The nose has notes of caramel candy, butterscotch, brown sugar, dried flowers, and a touch of oak tannins. The taste is thick and chewy with a good balance of spices, oak, caramel, butterscotch, and brown sugar. The finish is long and well-balanced with a gentle touch of spice. Excellent! (July, 2021)
