Tasting Notes

Nose

Toffee, honey, leather — the ten years of oak adding depth, sweet mashed corn, caramel, citrus, the Mashbill #1 character immediately recognisable

Palate

Light and delicate — sweet caramel and honey mixed with vanilla, dark fruit, woody oak, minty rye, bold oaky dryness, almonds, rich cocoa, the single barrel selection adding individual personality

Finish

Warm and oaky — cocoa and almond lingering, the ten years of age providing a smooth, satisfying close, an elevated daily dram

Expert Review

8/10

From the same distillery as Pappy Van Winkle — Eagle Rare uses Buffalo Trace's lower-rye Mashbill #1, aged no less than ten years with every barrel discriminately selected. Nougat, honeycomb, orange peel, and baking spice. An elevated daily dram that's become increasingly allocated and hard to find.
