Tasting Notes:
The latest Orphan Barrel project is a fantastically
tasty blend of Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee bourbons, all
bottled at the Dickel distillery in Tullahoma. I'm glad to see they
could pull this one off, as Dickel is not to everyone's taste, but
they've managed to sweeten up the normally corn-heavy whiskey with
MGP, along with some spice and elegance from an 18-year-old
Kentucky bourbon as well. Doesn't matter where it came from, the
juice is legit. Bottled at 90 proof, the palate is nougatty soft
with caramel, vanilla, and a really balanced oak profile. This is a
sipper for sure at this proof. REALLY impressed with this
one.
