Rare Perfection 14 Year Bourbon 750ML

Color

Golden Amber

Nose

Tropical notes are first to jump out of the glass, such as pineapple, toasted coconut, and citrus. There’s an underlying lanolin and slight chemical quality, however, not in an off putting or offensive way. It’s weird, but I like it! Upon further nosing, brown sugar, almonds, and golden raisin notes come through as well. 

Palate

The palate on this whiskey is thick, buttery, and downright tasty. Brown sugar notes are right up front, followed by orange, lemon, and a hint of cherry. As the palate begins to fade, delicious butterscotch flavors make an appearance.  Yum!

Finish

The finish is pleasantly long with lemon and citrus that evolves into a touch of cherry and cinnamon. The Butterscotch notes from the palate continue to linger around throughout the finish.
