Dexter Three Wood Bourbon
Brain Brew Whiskey | NAS | 100.6 Proof
Nose - Walnut immediately greets the nose followed by cool vanilla crème, hints of oak and toast.
Palate - Oak oak and more Oak. Notes of an earthy sweetness start to evolve with hints of vanilla and hazelnut. Once the oak subsides, this is surprisingly sweet like a Mallow Cup.
Finish - this is where this bottles falls short for me. Yes, there is a medium short finish with intense oak and honey reminiscent of a much older bottle. Man, with a solid finish, this bottle could go from good to incredible
Conclusion: Overall, at $40, this is a no brainer for me. Nothing about this bottle is upsetting. Its aged well, it has a good proof point, and most importantly, at $40 you cant go wrong!
