Jefferson's Presidential Select 20 Year Old Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Part of Jefferson's superb Presidential Select series, this is an impressive 20-year-old Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey, sourced from a distillery that has not been named. 20 years of maturation is rather a long time for bourbon, and this one has no shame in showing off its age.

Nose: Oak spice prickles through thick layers of caramel, vanilla, and honeycomb. A little leather lingers underneath.
Palate: Touches of dark fruit and orange zest complement more lush toffee sweetness, stem ginger in syrup, and baking spice.
Finish: Warming oak, dark chocolate, and butterscotch remain.
