Early Times Kentucky Whiskey

Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: American Whiskey

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 40%

Score: 84 Points

This is not a bourbon, since it’s aged in refill bourbon barrels. That gives it a soft oakiness on the nose, along with allspice and a touch of molasses. The taste is spicy and smooth with a caramel sweetness underneath and a touch of spearmint. The finish is soft and short with touches of cinnamon and caramel.
