Tasting Notes

About:

Appearance:
Nose:
. Rounding out the nose is a slight rubber eraser smell. All of these factors combine for a remarkably light and herbal nose for a bourbon. The refreshing, soft quality of the nose follows through into the
Palate:
, where corn flour and very little bite underly. Almost watery, Few is close to too subtle. There is a slight bitterness on the palate, but ensconced by a soft, velvety wave. The light, smooth mouth feel defines the experience of drinking this bourbon. A lingering finish carries wheat germ, slight rubber and corn notes on for quite some time. Overall a very strange bourbon, and one that I would recommend with cautious optimism. Likely a bourbon for non-bourbon drinkers, the young oak and mash bill have combined in a way I find relatively pleasant. Considering the interesting, atypical nature of the spirit, I would give Few Spirits Bourbon a score of 89.
