MB Roland Barker’s Mill Bourbon Review

/

Barker’s Mill is the first Bottled In Bond bourbon from M.B. Roland Distillery. Its namesake mill existed from the early to mid 1800’s until the mid 1900’s. According to the website, the mill included a distillery, although I can’t find any further information about that. The mill had a few names during its existence, one of which, interestingly, was Miller’s Mill. That may have been its originally name back when it was owned and operated by a James Miller. Also, M.B. Roland Distilery is located on Barkers Mill Rd, so there is a definite connection to this name.

Revisiting the Tullibardine 228, albeit in it’s revised packaging I was slightly underwhelmed with this expression compared to my first experience. Perhaps it was due to following the sweetness of the 225? I didn’t feel this had quite as much of the re…

Tullibardine 225

from Tullibardine’s spirit. This one seems quite light on the impact of the finishing cask and I found myself wishing it went a little further, the end result is a sweeter and fruitier dram with a touch more woody spices too. 81/100

Tullibardine Sovereign

Good texture and rounded with a good balance between fruit and oak wood before drier and spicier elements add interest. Perhaps a shade of spirit nature belies the youthfulness on the palate. 80/100
