Jim Beam Hardin’s Creek (Mushroom) bourbon review:
Nose: Caramel candies, old rickhouse oak and mustiness, vanilla buttercream, charred caramel sauce on flan. Fresher notes of apple flesh, biscuit and almost a hint of something surprising and resinous.

Nose: Light vanilla, sugar cookie, hints of roasted pineapple. Gentle fruity esters, a little hint of barrel spice, and mild, approachable sweetness. The pot still component is certainly noticeable.
