Bourbon 30
$59–$60
75% corn, 21% rye, 4% malted barley
Nose
Luscious and robust nose with prominent fruit. Fruitier, creamier, and caramelly profile than the 90 proof expression.
Palate
Thicker, creamier mouthfeel. Less spice and bite than the 90 proof despite higher proof. Secondary nutty mocha character develops a few seconds after swallowing. Slightly bitter chocolate hints.
Finish
Drying on the back end with nutty mocha notes.
Overall Score
3.8 / 5
A sophisticated higher-proof expression that delivers surprising softness with fruit-forward and creamy characteristics, proving higher proof doesn't necessarily mean harder bite.
