Bardstown, KY
$279
70% corn, 20% rye, 10% malted barley (approximate)
Nose
Pronounced age character; musty first-floor Rick house and woodworking shop aromas; excellent nose overall
Palate
Nutmeg and mace spice; fig and dried fruit notes; velvety character despite lower proof; decent viscosity and medium amber color; not overly oaky for the age
Finish
Clean finish allowing spice and fig notes to linger
Remarkable
A remarkable older bourbon blend that expresses mature complexity—fig, spice, and wood—with remarkable elegance and restraint at lower proof.
