Notes of Scent & Flavor
-
Flavor
"Handsomely packaged and dramatically underpriced for what it delivers, the whiskeys in Virginia Black result in a sip worthy balance of sweet oak and honied cherry flavors." -- Richard Carleton Hacker, Senior Contributing Editor and Spirits Aficionado, Robb Report and The Tasting Panel -
Finish
"Based on its richness, Virginia Black is one of the bigger, velvety, soft whiskeys that's been released in a long time." --Seven Grand Whiskey Bar -
Taste
"This high-rye Bourbon has a deep, tawny hue and a sweet scent that suggests raisins, dried figs and vanilla; it's almost like an oaky Cognac. The smooth palate shows oak and vanilla, finishing long with hints of toffee, orange peel and baking spice." -- Wine Enthusiast -
Aroma
"Teeming with aromas of butterscotch, toasted oak and honeysuckle. The mouthfeel is full with layered complexities. Bright flavors of tangerine luxuriously transform to notes of cedar while the finish lingers with distinct flavor of peach noyaux." --Wine Cellar -
Nose
"Smooth and buttery, with aromas of maple syrup, popcorn, and some mild oak spice… the texture is so buttery you hardly notice you're drinking it. It just slips down." --The Whiskey Wash
“Rated 91 Points in Wine Enthusiast. Rich. Decadent. Smooth. Virginia Black is a personally selected collection of two, three and four-year old bourbon whiskey focused on a high-rye content and finished with a decadent profile.”
