George Dickel Single Barrel Aged 15 Years Review
While the label states this is a single-barrel Tennessee whisky, this dram also adheres to all of the labeling and bottling standards for bourbon (but we don't need to get into that particular argument here). The profile of this whiskey is a sweet-lovers dream, while the age provides maximum bang for your buck. The nose is all waffles, ice cream, and toffee, followed by a savory sweetness on the palate. The texture is weighty, luxurious, and simply irresistible.
