Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.

Rock Castle Bourbon

Country: USA

Region: Kentucky

Type: Bourbon

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 56.34%

Score: 88 Points

This whiskey from Kentucky’s Barrel House Distilling has notes of charred oak, vanilla, honey, leather, pipe tobacco, and dark chocolate on the nose, while the palate has an intense spiciness with black pepper and chili powder that fades to reveal honey, brown sugar, and vanilla underneath. The finish is long, dry, and spicy. Water opens up the sweetness and tempers the spices nicely. (September, 2017)
