Old Grand-Dad 114

Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: Bourbon

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 57%

Score: 88 Points

One of the classic names in Bourbon history, yet this whiskey is often relegated to the bottom shelves at many retailers. The nose has notes of ginger, tobacco, honey, and caramel, with mild touches of clove and orange peel. The taste is chewy and thick with a peppery punch and notes of honey and caramel underneath. The finish is long and spicy with a slight tartness. (May, 2013)
