  • This bourbon would clearly benefit from 2 more years in barrel, but as it stands, it’s showing a solid start.

  • While sometimes youth can work against whiskey, that couldn’t be further from the truth here. This is a dynamic, well-balanced, easy-to-drink and highly enjoyable bourbon.

  • Hotel Tango is really stepping into their own with a bourbon that can easily trade blows with the evergreen releases of much bigger distilleries.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Honey, cocoa and rich peanut brittle and baking spice on the nose. This pour has come a very long way in a few short years since I first smelled it years ago at a tasting. Great structure with sweet caramel and honey.

  • Taste:

    Honey, baking spice again and some more peanut brittle. Salted caramel, light woodiness and clove for days.

  • Finish:

    Medium finish, a touch shorter than I’d like but full of barrel char, cocoa, honey, praline and a kiss of salted caramel once more.

  • Overall:

    Hotel Tango is really stepping into its own with a bourbon that can easily trade blows with the evergreen releases of much bigger distilleries.
