Jefferson's Bourbon
Jefferson's Reserve Groth Reserve Cask Finish Very Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Batch 3, Bottle 1181. One cube. Copper hues, cedar and spice aromas give way to corn syrup, maple stick and burnt cinnamon flavors. Medium length, smooth long finish with minimal bite. Performed far beyond expectations. I didn't sense any taste contribution from the fact that this was finished for 9 months in Groth Cab reserve oak barrels. Still, a damn good bourbon.

Aug 31st, 2016Color of very concentrate honey. Powerful nose of aldehyde, nice oak, sweet apple, sweet vanilla note, and hot alcohol in the nasal cavity. Very pleasant. Taste wise is also a beauty. Dense burnt creme purée, dense caramel note, ripe pineapples and apples, dried fruits, a touch of mint, and then oak note surfaces. Aftertaste is long with some more tea and zesty bite. She is concentrated yet smooth, powerful yet velvety. The power of 90 proof only shows up much later. Well done. Batch 7, bottle 7046.
