  • This is 4 year MGP sourced for Bourbon Street Wine and Spirits. Its not bad, but its punishingly hot. With some more time, I bet this would develop really nicely, but for now, its just an exercise in self harm.

  • Nose:

    Sweet toffee, fruity red berries. Musty tobacco. Pleasant, oaky, sweet. Nice body and age.

  • Taste:

    Woody, harsh. Very hot, especially considering the proof. Oak, toffee, some sawdust. Not really youthful in taste, past the searing heat. Some nice cherry. With some more age, I bet this would simmer into a real nice barrel.

  • Finish:

    Long, powerful and spicy. The youth is most apparent here. Spicy, hot, woody. Lordie.

  • Overall:

    This is 4 year MGP sourced for Bourbon Street Wine and Spirits. Its not bad, but its punishingly hot. With some more time, I bet this would develop really nicely, but for now, its just an exercise in self harm.
