Old Fitzgerald 1849 8yo 1987

Official bottling
Single bourbon - Kentucky
Amber
45% ABV
Dram

Nose: Cotton sheets, raisins, popcorn, brown butter, dates, toffee, hints of black pepper. 
Mouthfeel: Light body, loosens, mouth coating, cool. 
Tasting:  Sweet. Brown butter, popcorn, toffee, blackcurrant cordial, clay dust, hints of cloves. 
Finish: Long. Raisins, walnuts, clay dust, cloves, popcorn. 

Comments: 

Sweet, rich and intense, well aged with whiffs of dust and walnuts, yet not took cloying. I enjoyed the savoury nutty notes on the tongue, like drinking liquid popcorn soaked in Ribena. An excellent dram.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
