E.H. Taylor, Jr. Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
|
As founding father of the bourbon industry, Colonel Edmund Haynes Taylor, Jr. left an indelible legacy. His dedication to distilling began at the close of the Civil War when he purchased O.F C. Distillery. There, he developed innovative techniques that are still in use today.
Made by hand, this Small Batch Bourbon Whiskey has been aged inside century old warehouses constructed by E.H. Taylor, Jr. Barrels are evaluated and selected to create a perfect blend of distinctive character that is like no other. This bourbon is a true sipping bourbon that honors the uncompromising legacy of E.H. Taylor, Jr.
One of the most celebrated small-batch bourbons of recent years, Colonel E. H. Taylor's Small Batch Bourbon is a truly remarkable bourbon whiskey informed by the distillery's strong history of tradition. Handpicked from the finest barrels in Taylor's one-hundred-year-old warehouse, each batch possesses a truly distinctive blend that boasts one of the smoothest finishes on the market. A pure sipping whiskey, this made in the USA small batch bourbon is a must-own for connoisseurs with a passion for American whiskey craftsmanship and bold, brave flavors.
Tasting Notes:
Tastes of caramel corn sweetness, mingled with butterscotch and licorice. The aftertaste is a soft mouth-feel that turns into subtle spices of pepper and tobacco.
Nose: Lashings of spiced vanilla with butterscotch. Lots of subtle sweetness too, with predominantly honey and light caramel coming through beautifully. There’s also some leather, with dried tea and shoe polish towards the back end of the nose.
Mouth: The palate certainly lives up to the nose, and there’s abundant spice added to it. Cinnamon, cloves and black peppercorns all dominate the palate, but there are still hints of burnt crème caramel and spent tobacco. The sweetness lingers on, and the black liquorice comes through plentifully, giving nice depth and all-round balance. The finish carries on with the spice, but the texture changes ever so slightly to a creamier mouthfeel, and chilli chocolate comes out strikingly, giving an enjoyable kick to the end.
