Henry McKenna 10-Year Single Barrel Bottled in Bond (100 proof, Heaven Hill)
100 proof 10 years Bourbon Heaven Hill Bardstown, KY

Exceptionally sweet and welcoming with pronounced vanilla, butterscotch, and a distinct rickhouse character. Honey and graham cracker notes are immediately apparent.

Creamy and candy-forward entry with vanilla custard and creme brûlée quality. Honey, maple syrup, and graham cracker sweetness coat the palate. A berry fruit note (possibly raspberry or strawberry) rounds the corner at mid-palate. Light earthy notes emerge with continued tasting.

Gentle warming finish with restrained rye spice that kicks in only after the initial sweetness. Torch-caramelized sugar note persists. Well-coated mouthfeel throughout with a long, inviting finish.

Noteworthy
An exceptionally well-rounded and approachable bourbon with exceptional front-to-finish balance and surprising complexity for its proof.
