TASTING NOTES

• Overall:  caramel, sweet oak, boozy buttercream frosting, honey-maple, hints of cherry; vanilla, cherry Pop Tart, syrupy oak, sugar wafer, faint nutmeg; medium finish w/ Shirley Temple soda, caramel creme, raspberry filling, “prickly” charred oak, light baking spice
  
• Impression:  This is the sweetest barrel of the bunch - the smoothest as well (and I seldom use that descriptor). You just know you’re in for a treat when you get a sense of creaminess simply by nosing, and boy does this bourbon showcase it well when it hits the palate! I’m also impressed by the cherry notes, which fall somewhere between a cherry Pop Tart and a Shirley Temple soda. The finish may not be as long or as spicy as the other selections in the lineup, but honestly, that’s its appeal. Finally, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention honey-maple, which is something I often find on Wild Turkey 101 from the 2000s. 

   

  I’ll have to say, Wes & Co. did a fantastic job singling this barrel out. If you thought the previous ENDALZ CNE was great, just wait until you try this one. It’s a legit dream
