15 Stars Fine Aged Bourbon 7 and 15 Year Old Private Stock
107 Proof
7 and 15 Years
Straight Bourbon
15 Stars Fine Aged Bourbon
70-20-10 (standard bourbon mash bill with rye flavoring grain, approximately 20% rye)
Nose
Butterscotch notes with warehouse intensity and oak flavors from the older whiskey, with leathery notes present.
Palate
Fruity and light from the 7-year component with an airy quality, balanced by the deep, rich, robust 15-year bourbon in the back end. Buttery filling on the tongue with dried fruit sweetness rather than bright floral sweetness.
Finish
Nice tannins that settle and hang, creating a pleasant hug with lingering notes that make you want to take another sip.
Overall Score
4.5 / 5
A beautifully balanced blend of 7 and 15-year bourbons that delivers the best of both worlds, earning consideration for bourbon of the year.
