overall

While many lower proof, high aged George Dickel barrels are just less intense versions of their higher proof counterparts, some barrels surprise you. Barrel # 182 is an exception to the rule, bringing a richer intensity than most. Sweet dessert-like flavors lead, but it transitions to more savory flavors as it progresses.
