Nose
Not extensively described by the taster
Palate
Caramel sweetness like a caramel dip for fruit, cinnamon and nutmeg spices on the mid-palate, buttery and viscous mouthfeel with fatty acids still present, butterscotch note running through the middle of the palate
Finish
Butterscotch and cinnamon with nice caramel sweetness, low proof hug going down, perfectly balanced sweetness with baking spices, no dusty notes
Remarkable
A beautifully balanced dusty bourbon from the golden age of Old Crow, showcasing rich caramel, spice, and oily viscosity that modern Old Crow cannot replicate.
