  • Old Fitzgerald 14 Year and 11 Year Fall Release Head To Head Wheated Bourbon Review

    This 14 year sample is courtesy of the great @Ra1nmannn, who's name should look quite familiar on this Coming back to this after a little more air time has led this glass towards a light plum, singed cacao Slightly herbal after a sip, and I'm still surprised how little fruit I get on the nose for how much It reminded me of toothpaste a little bit.
