Distribution of ratings for this:

Acquired this on a whim and the fact that I've never had an EWSB Vintage before.
Bottling stats are as follows: 2002 Vintage Aged 9 years/10 months 43.3%/ 86.6° Barrel No. 163
Nose: I detected maple syrup, brown sugar, vanilla, and traces of spice. Not a very complex start.
Body: Medium
Taste: Spice in the form of fall and winter baking spices and pepper, honey, slightly sweet in the way of caramel and vanilla. Not much in the way of oak.
Finish: Spicy with pepper and increasingly lingering warmth. Has a bit of bite on the end.
Overall: Pretty good just not as complex as I would have hoped. I do plan to buy next years though.

I agree with you on this one. My bottle has been open a few weeks but is still virtually full. It just had an overpowering taste of ash. I don't have the details on my bottle because I am not at home. I also have a bottle of Four Roses single barrel. It is fantastic! A little pricier but well worth it.
