Eagle Rare Straight Bourbon 10 YO

The Eagle Rare Bourbon was created by Seagram master distiller Charles L. Beam and introduced in 1975. It stands as one of the last new Bourbon brands introduced before the current era of small batch Bourbons. In the years since it was acquired by numerous companies before it became a part of the Buffalo Trace Distillery.  

Eagle Rare 10YO Bourbon was aged for 10 years in new oak casks. It has claimed over 30 awards in the past decade, including 5 Double Gold medals at the SFWSC. In terms of price/quality ratio, you would be hard pressed to find a better value Bourbon as this one. Bourbon bang-for-the-buck of the year. And pretty quite damn spectacular as well. 

Nose: Complex aromas of toffee with hints of orange peel, honey, leather and stewed fruits.

Palate: Oily and bold with spicy vanilla, candied almonds, leather, sweet char.

Finish: Lingering and spicy
