About First West By 15 Stars Extra Aged
First West Extra Aged is a 100-proof straight bourbon from 15 Stars that blends 8 and 9-year-old bourbons sourced entirely from an undisclosed Kentucky distillery. Part of 15 Stars' newer First West line, this expression prioritizes flavor complexity over age statements, utilizing the brand's heritage grains and Flavor Proofing process. The bourbon delivers a sophisticated profile with bright citrus, warm spice, and caramel notes, making it an excellent choice for bourbon enthusiasts seeking quality at an accessible price point. At $69.99, it offers strong value compared to similarly aged premium bourbons, though some reviewers note the finish is shorter than expected for the price and age statement.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
The nose leads with bright orange peel and cinnamon spice, complemented by cherry and caramel that create a sweet aroma. Seasoned oak, leather, and hints of malted grain add complexity and depth to the aromatic profile.
👅 Palate
On the palate, orange notes develop into full marmalade character, accented with vanilla and oak. The mouthfeel is smooth and approachable for the 100-proof strength, with a round and balanced flavor profile.
✨ Finish
The finish opens with mild oak before transitioning to cocktail cherry notes, creating a tasteful combination. However, the finish is notably short, lingering only briefly before fading.
