Aged 7 years Barrel H170925, Bottle 133 of 153 128.3 proof Diluted to approximately 100 proof (1/4 oz water added per 1 oz whiskey) Nose: Possible chlorophyll, ethanol, mineral notes (observed with tap water; these notes were absent when using distilled water). Palate: Warm body, notes of anise, with a buttery texture.
Bib & Tucker was the brand that finally made me appreciate bourbon. I used to find it a bit harsh, but I've found I really enjoy it after letting it sit with ice for a longer period.
A strong initial taste with a pleasant fading aftertaste. It has an almost earthy, bitter chocolate flavor that hits hard initially but then mellows out smoothly. It's an acquired taste.
It makes a strong initial impression, presenting the typical caramel flavor associated with Bib Tucker, along with an oaky taste. Not recommended for novice palates.
Be sure to add some ice or water. It's an excellent bourbon, but it has a noticeable heat.
I previously owned a bottle of this last year. Once again, a victim of effective marketing.
