Buffalo Trace (Beverage Warehouse Vermont)

The aroma presents a touch of fruity sweetness alongside vanilla and toasted wood. As it airs out, the sweetness evolves into apple, resulting in a straightforward yet highly welcoming spirit. The taste is smooth and mild, coating the palate with apple sweetness, toasted wood, and hints of vanilla. A subtle wave of black pepper adds some complexity. The finish is of moderate length and gently spicy, with lasting toasted wood notes overpowering the sweetness and vanilla. It's quite simple, but executed skillfully. A pleasure to drink, though richer vanilla tones would elevate it further.
