Belle Meade Single Barrel 10 yr has done many great things recently with their finished line of bourbons. Sherry, Cognac, and now Madeira’s cask finishes are all out-of-the-park home runs for [Sniff] and me. This is a blend of 10-year-old and older whiskies from MGP (formerly known as LDI). Andy Nelson of Nelson’s Greenbrier Distillery (co-owner of Belle Meade and head distiller) has always been very open about where they get their distillate from and how little or hands-on they are with selecting the yeast strains, barrels, and locations of aging. Will this Single Barrel cut? Or will we stick to the fancy finishes that they are so good at churning out? Read on to find out!
C: A light reddish orange liquid with lighter edges when the light catches it.
N: The nose has an eerily similar honeyed characteristic like that of The Balvenie 12 yr double wood. It’s very soft on the nose but a sweet, subtly spiced oak. A very light toffee/caramel note comes through after sticking my nose deep in the glass. Possibly cooked quince or a tart fruit (not a fruit tart).
P: Vanilla, with spiced chocolate notes, floods the mouth. Slightly charred oak and licorice create a sour bitter note, handled well by the welcoming sweetness.
F: The bourbon finishes with a slightly peppery, welcomed oaky spice. The longer the glass lingers with bourbon in it, the more the caramel and toffee characteristics swell and tempt you back for more. After a full day of sampling and reviewing bourbons, I can honestly say that coming back to this bourbon is a real treat. It feels like home base, that all other higher proof bourbons can be judged against.
Great company, great people, and a pretty darn tasty bourbon. Like I said before though, their finished bourbons and whiskies are nothing to shake a stick at and you should pick up a few cases when you get a chance. Unless we get to them first.
Scotch. Out.
