Kentucky Owl The Wiseman Bourbon
90.8 proof 4+ years Bourbon Kentucky Owl Bardstown, KY $49 High wheat and rye blend

Spice and caramel sweetness, not overly complex, some ethanol present.

Sweet upfront with floral notes, transitioning to baking spices like allspice and cinnamon on the back end.

Dry oak finish with baking spices, short finish that falls off quickly, a bit hot.

Disappointing
A solid, entry-level bourbon from Kentucky Owl that's pleasant upfront but unbalanced on the finish.
