GSN’s Remarks: In the end clean entry with notes of tree and vine fruit: contemporary apple, pear, and white grape, together with softer flavors of espresso cake, cinnamon toast and delicate oak. The physique has a medium mouthfeel, with lots of current flavors ahead on the palate. The end is medium lengthy, with a refreshing peppery finality. What we love about this bourbon is that it simply retains getting higher with every sip. One of the crucial pleasant and approachable bourbons we’ve ever had. If certainly that is the form of whiskey that was apprehended by Prohis again within the unhealthy ol’ days, we’re glad that it has lastly been granted freedom after 100+ years. Confiscated will get our vote for Bourbon of the 12 months! GSN Score: A+++
