Light and easy drinking but a medicinal flavor to it. Not my favorite, probably a scotch.

This smells and tastes so familiar. Iโ€™m going to kick myself when I reveal what it is. Very light bodied, and has a bit of a bite. Leaves me a bit wanting, but overall not bad.

Itโ€™s delicate. Not too boozy. Itโ€™s not an easy one to guess.

Gentle and balanced with traces of honey and orange. A bit forgettable, but it's really easy to drink and a nice dram.

We're back! This Broken Oak has a bit more of a grain flavor than I remember, but still such a solid pour.

Such a good bourbon! Smooth, sweet and a little strong but I still enjoyed it as much as last year. Enjoying this with my brother-in-law who likes it but thinks it is a little astringent with a medicinal finish that lingers a little too long for his preference. Great start to the season. Merry Christmas!!

Sweeter and more baking spices than I remember, which leads to a muddied finish, but still delicious

Mouth Magic. I enjoyed this yesterday during the tour and while I'm not a bourbon guy, I'd sip on this next to the only 2 other bourbon's I'd actually buy: Michter's Sour Mash & Mystic Bottle in Bond--Allan's 2023 submission. Am I becoming a Bourbon Guy Again?

Good evening, Colonel Taylor! Nose of candied cherry and orange. Taste of orange and honey, with a finish of sweet corn. Such a winner.

Green apple flavor, taste like a young whiskey. I have zero clue what this is.

I think I was just so excited for the advent season that I wasnโ€™t ready to receive this bourbon. Hot out the gate, loved the nose but a slight medicinal character kept me from rating it too high.

Tastes like a young Ardbeg, perhaps the 10 year. Crisp and lemony with that distillery's characteristic softer touch of peat. I love this one.
