Day 18... Hump Day!!! Into the final week, today I have a gift from my brother Troy, 2016 Garrison Brothers Texas Straight Bourbon Whiskey, 47% ABV, aged 3 years. This arrived on my doorstep last December right after I wrapped up last years 12 Days of Whisk(e)y. It took willpower, but I was able to sit on this one until today (:
Aroma has a bit of sweet along with some wood. Taste is good overall, you get the bourbon sweetness, along with some nice pepper and wood. It's got some kick, seems stronger than the 47% ABV. A dash of water seems to bring the pepper to the front, along with a bitter finish. Probably better neat, overall, pretty good, 3.5/5.0
