Bulleit Bourbon has become a firm favourite – and now you can sample it after it's spent a decade in oak, too! The mash bill comprises 68% corn, 28% rye and 4% malted barley for a rich balance of creaminess and spice.
Not quite sure what this offers over the 'standard' Bullet
To the nose, I could pick up on a fruity aroma, along with strong hints of vanilla and subtle tones of oak. I've actually been practising my nose for wines and whisky. I was pleasantly surprised when I came here and looked up the palate only to find; I was spot on. This really doesn't burn to my taste, compared to other reviews, I found that this particular tipple is actually rather smooth. Having tasted everything from Nikka, Four Roses, Jim Beam, Jack Daniels, Macallan (12 year), Suntory toki and Suntory Hibiki. This definitely benefits from a decent % ABV, but it doesn't sting like some of the styles you can get. This to me, feels smooth, flavourful and rich. Take time with it, use your nose for the first 20 minutes and just let it breath, then once you've sampled the aromatics, add a single (small) shard of ice to slowly lower the temperature and sip slowly.
Sweet, oakey, spicy.
It really isnt anything special, WT101 kicks it in the balls and escorts it out of the park.
Oaky, spiciness from the rye, hints of butterscotch, treacle and even coconut.
