BigPapa Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 I would love to hear what bourbon is the sweetest on your pallet. my sweetest bourbon hit me today. It was Old Grand Dad 114!!! Neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddy Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I find Barton to be sweet and fruity. Not as much zing as the 114, but definitely sweet. VOB BIB, if available where you are, is the standard bearer for the brand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry in WashDC Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Was going to say BT 90 proof which always hits me with candy apple. BUT, lately VOB BIB has been my go-to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xevious Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I find Old Forester and Old Forester Sig pretty sweet. I get loads of caramel from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAbiker Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 I've always felt that MM is the sweetest bourbon I've ever tasted. Too sweet for my taste in fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryT Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 ORVW 90 proof - was like liquid candy to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickert Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Old Charter 10 is the sweetest for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SebastianLloyd Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 I had KC Maple, that was toxic sweet. As for regular bourbon, WTRB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dSculptor Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Lately mine has been JD SB BF , just a sweet fruity bomb, with a tad bit of heat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starhopper Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I think it has to be my Stagg Jr (batch 4) - tried it again last night - it is very sweet to my palate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_mays Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 1792 and VOB BIB are about the sweetest I can recall. OGD 114 always had kind of a grassy cereal thing going on for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mibourbonguy Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I agree with OGD114 being more grainy, and more rye in it. OWA is probably the sweetest bourbon I've had, though I do remember BT being pretty sweet as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Reserve Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 Those old wax dipped ETL bottles had a certain sweetness to them. My sweet tooth really like those bottles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not like 1792 very much and I think the reason is that it is too thin and too sweet and fruity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerlam92 Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 I think the wheated bourbon tend to be a little sweeter and exactly what I love. However, from memories for the sweetest and oddly, the Booker 25th Anniversary was like burnt brownie and supper yummy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazz Nut Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 To me probably the sweetest was a store select of Ridgemont Reserve 1792. But for off the shelf varieties, I'd have to say Maker's Mark, or Weller Special Reserve 90 proof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
