House Review
  • Intro:

    W. H. Harrison Governors Reserve celebrates the rare balance of boldness and smoothness required in a great leader, and great Bourbon. This is Batch #4

  • Nose:

    Ethanol, corn, honey and graham cracker. Sweet buttered popcorn and clove.

  • Taste:

    Medium mouthfeel, some heat. Weirdly thin, lots of honey and faint pepper.

  • Finish:

    Short, hot and loaded with fruitiness. Lots of melon, passion fruit, honey, clove and graham cracker. Surprisingly not full of craft notes - which is excellent.

  • Overall:

    I wanted to like this more than I did, but it is a bit rough around the edges. Thankfully though, it does not pack a lot of gross young crafty notes which helps it at ranking time.

  • Score:

    4
