Eagle Rare 17 2010 Release

Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: Bourbon

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 45%

Score: 91 Points

Part of the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection, this bourbon has a nose of burnt vanilla creme, maple syrup, allspice, and a touch of dry red wine. The taste has a good balance of spice and sweetness, with cinnamon and black pepper balanced well by caramel and vanilla underneath. The finish has a spiciness that lingers nicely. Outstanding!
