Ewing Young Cask Strength Bourbon

Brown sugar undertones on the nose with an Oregon oak dominant aroma. Oak continues to be the primary flavor on the palate, led by apricot, with spicy notes leading to a honey finish. This is likely a well-kept secret and would be close to perfect if it had an additional two years of aging. Keep this one to yourself.

Brown sugar, caramel, and wood on the nose and palate. Less sweet in taste than its aroma suggests. Also detects white pepper, a slight savoriness, herbal notes, and oak is present throughout. I detect a hint of briny celery. An oily mouthfeel with a medium finish. I enjoyed it.

Caramel and pepper notes are present. It has a lengthy finish, almost like a rye. This, along with the non-cask strength version, reminds me of Rittenhouse rye. Quite enjoyable.

I concur! This is an excellent find. High proof with a clean, spicy, vanilla taste. The finish is exceptionally long. A highly-regarded bourbon.
