Pretty nice stuff. Nose reminds me of cherries and cut cedar. Surprisingly soft, creamy sweetness...and it's actually 45% ABV, not 40% as above... Posted By: Mike

Just bought a bottle and the UK Bulleit bottles are definitely labelled as 40% - although I know the US bottles are 45% ABV.

Bulleit Bourbon

One look at a bottle of Bulleit is enough to tell you that this is a product that has taken the frontier spirit of the first American pioneers to heart. Packaged in an old-style flask, Bulleit has a traditional high-rye mashbill (around 30%). The brand was revived in the 1980s by Tom Bulleit, an ex-Marine who saw service in Vietnam. Tom gave up his successful law practice to make whiskey, using a recipe belonging to his great-great-grandfather - the enigmatic Augustus Bulleit.

Tasting Notes:

Producer's Tasting Notes

Oaky, smoky, and smooth.

Bulleit Bourbon is russet in color with a rich, oaky aroma. The dry, clean flavor is mellow and smooth, not hot in the throat. This 90 proof Kentucky bourbon delivers a wonderfully complex taste with hints of vanilla and honey and a long smoky finish.

Rating by F. Paul Pacult (Spirit Journal)

Superb - A highly recommended distilled spirit whose attributes, in the opinion of the author, are of exemplary quality and character within the established standards of its category. An outstanding product which is worthy of a search. (September, 2002)

Tasting Notes from Beverage Tasting Institute (Chicago)

Pale copper color. Sweet walnut fudge nose. A supple entry leads to a medium-bodied palate displaying dry caramel, brown spice notes, and a dash of warming alcohol on the long, smooth finish. A refreshing, easy-drinking bourbon style. 90 points (Exceptional) January, 2002
