Intro:
This is a single barrel from Four Roses using the OBSO Recipe. This is another fun one - I have the recipe, and the proof, and the tier. This is from Tier 2. But that's it. We're flying blind here, which has become sort of fun. Let's give it a go.
-
Nose:
Brown sugar, baking spice, pepper and cloves. Rich and savory leaning in the dessert and spice forward direction.
-
Taste:
Sweet brown sugar, medium mouth feel, faint heat. Spicy clove, rich herbal spice and some orange zest.
-
Finish:
Long, rich and herbal. A hint of heat, but very well behaved. This is really quite nice.
-
Overall:
This is pretty nice. That spicy B mash bill is bringing the spice, and the fruits are here in that orange peel I so often find in O yeasts. Delicious, despite the big question mark on selection, age and barrel. If I had to guess, I'd put this in the 9 year range.
