As it airs, the stout finish becomes more noticeable. The aroma is balanced. Despite only a 3-month finish, the stout appears to dominate the Bourbon. The finish seems unbalanced and off. This remains on shelves for a reason; it lacks balance and is too expensive! The producer is unknown, but believed to be in KY. My score was 79.

About this bottle
This Kentucky bourbon is fully aged in new, charred American oak barrels. It then spends an additional 3-4 months finishing in a stout barrel from Goodwood Brewing before being bottled at 90 proof.

Incredible! I really enjoy the sweetness, reminiscent of salted caramel. Not overly hot – absolutely love it!

An easy-drinking spirit. No lingering aftertaste.
Improved with an ice cube.
