  • This is a fun one, displaying some of the romp and attitude the Camp Nelson warehouse can dish out. I’m a fan, and Liquor Barn still knows how to pick em.

  • Nose:

    Rich toffee, peanut brittle, cream and fun turkey funk. All cream and sweets.

  • Taste:

    Thin to medium mouth feel. The heat is just right for the proof. Rising bread, toffee, pepper. A bit of clove, bitters, orange peel. Kind of like an old fashioned in a bottle minus the sweets. Peanut brittle is back, some creme brûlée.

  • Finish:

    Long finish, growing hotter and spicier. The play is over from the nose and palate - this dries right out leaving me with a peppery tingle.

  • Overall:

    This is a fun one, displaying some of the romp and attitude the Camp Nelson warehouse can dish out. I’m a fan, and Liquor Barn still knows how to pick em.
