First West Extra Aged
Not stated 8-9 years Bourbon 15 Stars Bardstown, KY High-malted barley component (10% of blend) blended with aged bourbons
Nose

Plum, dark fruits, orange rind, orange marmalade, jammy richness with subtle citrus undertones.

Palate

Elegant and soft with reduced graininess. Rich barrel flavors dominate. Stewed fruits, dark fruit character, full-bodied presence from the high-malted barley accent.

Finish

Lingering dark fruit and citrus with subtle oak influence.

Very good
A mature and nuanced bourbon where extra aging has refined the grain character into sophisticated barrel-driven flavors with an elegant citrus thread.
