Appearance: It’s very attractively packaged in a clear, wide-shouldered bottle with a cream label. The bourbon is an amber color, tending to the lighter side, without cloudiness.
Aroma: There are clearly some dried fruit hints on the nose, peach and apricot, with a hint of cinnamon. The rye is evident.
Taste: The first taste is sweet, with the corn very evident from the start. The front of the tongue definitely tastes the sugars and baked goods, while the middle of the tongue gets a hint of peppery spice that dies quickly. It is smooth, never really developing the bite I expected from an over-90 proof bourbon. The profile reminded me of Brown-Forman’s products, which may give a clue as to where this was distilled, as Michter’s has to be sourcing their bourbon from someplace else while they get their own distillery up and running.
Finish: This bourbon has a relatively short, dry finish with no unpleasant after tastes, and almost begs for a second taste. Some lingering graham cracker and honey coalesce towards the end of the finish
