Originating from Colonel E.H. Taylor Jr.'s esteemed distillery, this 'Topmost Class' Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey offers a timeless and elegant drinking experience. At 80 proof, it reveals a graceful balance of sweet notes and subtle spice, culminating in a smooth, approachable finish perfect for any occasion.
Tasting Notes
Nose: Initial notes of sweet corn and vanilla bean are present, followed by subtle hints of dried apricot, light oak, and a faint whisper of butterscotch. There's a delicate floral undertone, perhaps honeysuckle, and a touch of white pepper that adds complexity.
Palate: The palate is remarkably smooth for 80 proof, opening with a pleasant sweetness of caramel and baked apple. A gentle warmth of baking spices – nutmeg and a touch of cinnamon – emerges, balanced by a light minerality and a soft, woody character. The 'Topmost Class' indeed speaks to a refined, easy-drinking quality.
Finish: The finish is clean and surprisingly lingering, with echoes of sweet oak and a faint, pleasant char. A touch of dried orange peel and a subtle nutty note, like toasted almond, persist, making for a very approachable and satisfying conclusion.
