S.E. Callahan's Distiller's Select Straight Bourbon

Exceptional for its age. I'm eager for the 4-year-old version (and beyond). A wonderful place to visit in historic Jonesborough, TN. As far as I know, this is not sourced and is actually made in East Tennessee (or am I mistaken?).

The aroma is mild. Woody with a slight richness on the nose. Dry and earthy at first, with some nutty and coffee notes towards the end. It's a decent bourbon, really. Not outstanding, but it is a 2-year-old that isn't pricey.

Pleasant and mellow. The flavors are deep enough to keep me interested. I was concerned it was too young, but it developed nicely. It improves as I drink more from the bottle.

Excellent aromas of vanilla and honey, although the burn on the tongue is intense and definitely qualifies this bourbon as a “sippin’ whiskey”.

Sweet and flavorful, with a rich character; a very fine young bourbon. Acquired directly from the producer and enjoyed each time it's poured.

Much better than anticipated, with very traditional tasting notes. I need to buy a bottle to investigate further.
