This is a single barrel of bourbon selected by a local wine merchant, Rileys Wines of the World, from Buffalo Trace. It comes in at 45% ABV and features mashbill 1. I've had some real winners from this shop in the past, so I'm curious to see how it is. Let's dive in.

Honey, toffee, caramel and bright fruitiness. Mild on the oak, big on cherry, orange peel and mango. Light vanilla, faint cassia, mostly caramel and fruits.
Medium mouth feel. Honey, peanut brittle, caramel bright orange peel and cherry.
Long, rich, bit of musty tobacco. Honey, more cherry, and some oak. Good blend of fruits, caramel and oak.
I could go for a little more oak here, which feels weird to say, but overall I think it's a winner of a barrel all the same. I'd drink more of this, and I plan to.
