Evan Williams 2005 Single Barrel

Evan Williams 12
This Kentucky straight bourbon was bottled at 92 proof (46% ABV) as part of a small batch release. Small batch bourbons are deliberately limited in scope—typically a blend of dozens to a few hundred barrels—allowing greater control over character and consistency than mass production.
The tasting profile shows classic bourbon hallmarks: toffee and caramel on the nose, with hints of honey and vanilla. The palate layers in brown sugar, baking spices, and seasoned oak, supported by a dry, well-defined structure. The finish is clean and restrained—notably free of excess barrel sugar, a sign of disciplined maturation.
This is a straightforward, accessible bourbon that works equally well neat or in cocktails. The 46% ABV delivers sufficient grip without overwhelming.
