This is a small format bottle of a WB Liquors selection of Eagle Rare 10. Eagle Rare 10 uses Buffalo Traces Mashbill 1 mashbill and is aged for 10 years.
Sweet vanilla, oak, passion fruit, caramel and toffee. Nice tobacco presence.
Medium mouth feel, no heat. Vanilla, tobacco, oak and pleasant cocoa influence. Lacking a lot of the fruitiness I get in some Eagle Rare 10 iterations, but making up for it in reach dessert richness without overbearing, bitter oak.
Medium length, faint oak, cocoa and tobacco. Vanilla icing and some mild orange peel are present also. Really interesting.
Definitely a unique profile for most Eagle Rare 10, this was delicious and interesting all at once. I found myself going to this bottle over and over and over because of how unique it was, and to my dismay, I came to the bottom far faster than I was expecting to.
