Early Times Bottled in Bond - Review #1
Background on me for my first post; I have been drinking Bourbon for number of years now however I just got into actually learning and creating a collection. My whiskey journey started in college as a broke student who could only afford the plastic early times 🤢. I wish I knew about budget bourbons like this at the time. I’m still new at picking up notes so here we go.
Distillery: Sazerac
Proof: 100
Age: NAS but at least 4 years
MSRP: $11.50
Nose: Artificial Red Cherry almost like Cherry flavored children’s liquid Tylenol
Palate: A tad bit on the thicker side, vanilla, caramel, and other sweet flavors. Very little ethanol heat
Finish: Medium to long finish, Sweet flavors fade and leave a Smokey flavor.
Summary: Even without considering the price it’s an excellent bottle. The only thing this bottle is missing is some more complexity and proof but for the price you can only ask for so much.
8.5/10
Ratings: 1: 2: 3: 4: 5: 6: 7: 8: WT 101 8.5: ET BIB 9: 10: Moonrise Single Barrel
