TASTING NOTES
Heavily reliant on the Char 5 and Char 6 barrels for a full-flavored, spicy bourbon. Rich in consistency, and a blast of cinnamon on the finish. Baking spices and pine across the middle. The nose reminds you of a cinnamon disk candy.
I am relatively new to Bourbon drinking but over the past year I have collected some pretty good Bourbon. I ended up hosting a dinner with 3 friends from work and we blind tasted the owl, weller 17 year, eagle rare 17 year, michter 25 year. The owl in our view was the best of the lot. It was really close with the michter though, but superb.
