Detailed Description
Detailed Description
This particular version of their Eagle Rare 17 Year Old Bourbon was barreled in 1999 in new white oak with a #4 “alligator” char level at 125 proof. The mash was made from Kentucky corn, Minnesota rye and North Dakota Distillers malted barley. It spent the next 17 years patiently aging in warehouses H and K on the first, second and third floors. Thirty two barrels were chosen by taste, the whiskey was chill filtered, and then cut to 90 proof. A whopping 66%+ was lost to angels’ share before Spring 2016 bottling.
Eagle Rare 17 Year Old (2016 Release) Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Tasting Notes
Nose: It is very inviting on the nose. It is not aggressive, but readily available with aromas of leather, candied fruit, oak and vanilla. There is a slight alcohol burn on the nose as well.
Palate: The taste profile is a little more aggressive than the nose and more aggressive than previous years. However, the flavors match well with the perceived aromas. Flavors of leather, oak, vanilla with just a hint of tobacco and toffee are easily detected early on. The unusual part of this bourbon experience is that most of the flavor action is from the front to mid-mouth area.
Finish: The finish is long in repeated multiple waves of activity from front to back until it settles in mid-mouth for a prolonged experience.
