1792 - Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey (750ml)

The rare whiskies from Sazerac like Pappy Van Winkle, George T. Stagg, Eagle Rare and others are hard to find but this Bourbon, also made by Sazerac, is a great stand in at 1/5 the price. Originally called 1792 Ridgemont Reserve Bourbon it was rebranded just "1792" and repackaged.  This is a no-age statement bottling but prior to 2013 it had a blend of 5 to 8 year old whiskies. Still a high-rye bourbon and is still bottled at 46.85% ABV.  Maybe not Pappy but caramelly and delicious never the less.

Rich, perfumed aroma, rounded and full with heather, honey, notes of sweet pineapple, butter toffee, toast, cereal and vanilla. Great depth, sweet golden syrup and honey followed by spices and orange peel. Glorious, the perfume characteristics become more spicy, with a zesty hint of orange peel in a decidedly dry finish.

The first couple of sniffings detect attractive, dry scents of leather and black pepper; aeration encourages sweeter, woodier aromas to emerge. The palate entry is sap- and pine-like and moderately sweet; at midpalate a flash of cocoa appears, then recedes for additions of sweet oak, vanilla, palm oil and sap. Finishes lean, moderately sweet, grainy/corny and very appealing. Best Buy.
