Old Grand-Dad 114 is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey known for its bold flavor and higher proof. Here’s a breakdown of what you can expect:

Color: Medium amber with a warm golden hue.

Aroma: The nose can be quite complex. Some reviewers find it initially subdued, offering hints of dusty nut shells, light leather, and a touch of pepper spice. Others mention a surprising sweetness with orange peel and baking spices like cinnamon. The rye grain in the mashbill can be quite noticeable, with notes of earthy rye and even a hint of dill.

• Caramel and vanilla: Sweet notes of caramel and vanilla add balance to the spice.
• Oak: The presence of oak from aging is noticeable, with hints of toasted wood and baking spices.

Overall: Old Grand-Dad 114 is a bold and robust bourbon with a strong rye influence. It’s a good choice for experienced bourbon drinkers who enjoy a spicy kick and a complex flavor profile. However, beginners might find the heat and bitterness a bit overwhelming.
