Bourbon
Kentucky Owl
Bardstown, KY

High wheat and rye blend
Nose
Spice and caramel sweetness, not overly complex, some ethanol note
Palate
Sweet upfront with nice initial flavor, moves to baking spices (allspice, cinnamon hint) in the middle
Finish
Short finish that's a bit dry with oak, somewhat hot, falls off quickly
Disappointing
A solid, widely-available entry-level bourbon with pleasant upfront sweetness but an unbalanced finish that lacks complexity.
