RD1 French Oak Finish Kentucky Straight Bourbon Frazier Museum Single Barrel Barrel Proof
121 proof Not stated Kentucky Straight Bourbon RD1 Distillery Lexington, KY $79
Nose

Sweet nose with distinct maple character, French vanilla, baking chocolate note

Palate

Maple, walnut, and vanilla notes, stone fruit, no overwhelming tannins despite French oak, goes down very easy for barrel proof, very well-balanced

Finish

Medium to medium-long finish that sticks pleasantly, little bit more heat as you sip through it, no dry or drying tannic quality

Very good
A French oak single barrel that delivers traditional bourbon flavor with a pleasant maple signature and approachable barrel-proof drinkability.
