Fruit-forward, sweet, balanced and delectable nose. A big orange peel note is joined by peaches and cream, graham cracker, cinnamon, cherry and marshmallow fluff.
Apple pie leads the palate, joined by peanut brittle, oak, tannin, pretzel, orange peel and crème brûlée.
Warming finish with plenty of oak and tannin, plus crisp apple, cinnamon, brown sugar and banana nut muffins.
This is a dynamite single barrel. Well done, Green River and Eric LeGrand. Delicious bourbon.
