Bardstown Bourbon Company Victoria Pineapple Barrel Finish
106.1 proof Blend of 10 and 11 year old whiskeys finished 27 months in rum barrels Bourbon Bardstown Bourbon Company Bardstown, KY $140
Nose

Immediately tropical with grilled pineapple; sweet with a warming burn in the nostrils; very tropical overall.

Palate

Lush, syrupy-sweet, and milky with a body that clings to the mouth; tropical fruit dominates but rye spice and dark cherry emerge on repeated sips; functions almost as a self-contained cocktail.

Finish

Sweet and tropical throughout; the underlying rye spice and cherry briefly surface but are overtaken by sweetness.

Mediocre
A novelty pour with bold tropical character and syrupy sweetness that works best as a cocktail base rather than a traditional sipping bourbon.
