BIB & TUCKER スモールバッチバーボン 6年、ケンタッキー 750ml

The dried apricot note really comes through on the palate, balancing the caramel sweetness nicely. That lingering finish with a hint of chestnut makes this a great sipper for a cold evening.

That vanilla and leather on the nose really pulls you in, and the caramel and dried apricot sweetness carries through nicely. The ginger spice gives it just enough bite to keep things interesting, and the chestnut finish lingers longer than I expected for the price.

The finish is where this one shines—it lingers for a solid minute with that chestnut note, and the leather aroma hits you right when you pour. I've had pricier bourbons that don't offer this much depth, and the caramel sweetness balances the ginger spice just right for an evening sipper.
