80
- Nose
- Very malty for a bourbon.
- Palate
- Malty, then buttery. Lots of flavour development. Vanilla. Liquorice.
- Finish
- Nice balance of oaky dryness. This level of woodiness is acceptable in a bourbon.
- Comment
- Fifteen years is quite old for a bourbon, but this is complex, rounded and a good example of Heaven Hill's style. Keeps the sweet notes dominant.
77
- Nose
- Rich and heady. Plum jam, vanilla. Hint of mushroom and damp cellar. Peppery.
- Palate
- Both sweet and tangy. Spices and dark chocolate (chocolate-coated brandy cherries). Too aggressive undiluted. Cedar resin, balsamic notes.
- Finish
- Large, robust and lingering.
- Comment
- A tough guy exposing his complexity a bit too conspicuously. After dinner, with a cigar.
