This Bourbon was distilled in Spring of 1993. It aged on the 2nd, 3rd, and 6th floors of warehouses I & K.
Nose: fresh oak, barrel char, really earthy, bread, grains, herbal, and lots of corn.
Taste: This is a very light bodied Bourbon especially for being 19 yrs old which this bourbon actually is instead of the 17 stated on the bottle. The corn reappears on the palate followed by lemon grass, anise, and mint.
Finish: rather soapy, with oak, anise again, and some grains, rye, and bread.
Overall it's rather simple. Not much is going on here. The Bourbon seems over oaked, very light weight, and one dimensional.
