Russell's Reserve Private Barrel "B&B #24" Bourbon

Russell's Reserve Barrel #24-0059, aged in rickhouse Tyrone-K on the fifth floor for eight years, boasts one of the friendliest and coziest noses we've come across in a Russell's barrel. Aroma is of warming maple syrup, matchstick, toasted oak, and cedar, accented by a hint of peanut butter - altogether it's reminiscent of an evening spent by the fireplace. The oaky notes of the nose are scant on the palate, drinking sweet and mellow with a subtle and welcome brightness: salted caramel, almond croissant, melon, lime peel, a hint of rum, with cocoa nibs and creamy marshmallow on the finish. Bottled at 55% abv.
