A TRIO tasting of Koval's Whiskeys

Single Barrel Bourbon Whiskey
94 proof 47% alcohol
Aged: under 4 years

On the Nose:  Vanilla and oak, and a sweet scent from possibly the corn.  But I cannot tie it to just one sweet smell.
Taste:  A heavy woodiness comes out and expressions of tobacco and chocolate coat the entire mouth.

Single Barrel Rye Whiskey
80 proof 40% alcohol
100% Rye Whiskey

On the Nose:  mild floral and wood undertones
Taste:  In my opinion this is a very mild rye and great for those that would like to start trying rye whiskies.  It has a buttery feel with a hint of mint and a very mild black pepper finish.  I think the proof on the whiskey takes away from the peppery finish that I am used to, but I really like pepper forward ryes.  This will definitely be recommended to those that enjoy whiskeys and have a preference of a less peppery finish.
 
Single Barrel Whiskey Four Grain
94 proof 47% alcohol
Four Grains:  Oat, Malted Barley, Rye and Wheat

On the Nose:  Strange but the nose on this one does not give you a preview into what you will be tasting.  Starts off with a scent of oak and almost presents a mild floral scent.  It creeps in there when you least expect it.
Taste:  Buttery toffee flavor that is so smooth on the mouth feel and presents itself throughout the entire taste.  Towards the end of the taste the mild pepper flavor comes in and makes itself know but is not over powering.
 
Out of the three tastings my favorite is the Four Grain.  The grains are perfectly billed out to make this a great whiskey.  The mouth feel is so smooth and being able to taste the flavors all the way through if amazing.  Cheers!
