Widow Jane 14 year Old The Vaults 2019 Straight Bourbon Tasting Notes
Nose: The base of vanilla and brown sugar, but with a substantial trimming of spearmint and fir tree-style evergreen scent,
Palate: The flavor opened with that evergreen and mint spiciness before the sweet vanilla sweet side came up to occupy center stage again.
Finish: The finish was really the only thing that held this Whiskey back from an A-. It ran with a light sprinkle of wood spices before fading quickly.
