TX Straight Bourbon Whiskey Tasting Notes
Nose: Caramel and sharp heat strike the nose initially, with strong vanilla plus distinct malt and nuttiness. Aromas expand to dry grass, toasted grains and hot earth like a summer-scorched field.
Palate: The palate is corn-forward, also sharp and pleasantly oily and matches the nose with added stone fruit.
Finish: The finish is malty and grainy.
