Bourbon 30 90 Proof
90 Proof
Straight Bourbon
Bourbon 30
$40-$42
75% corn, 21% rye, 4% malted barley
Nose
Nice vanilla front with a touch of smoky caramel and oak spice. A bit nutty with more oak spice than typical 90-proof expressions.
Palate
Very consistent with the nose, nutty profile carries through nicely. Not super sweet up front but has nice sweetness, with rye coming in on the back with a warming effect. Dry and lingering finish that begs another sip.
Finish
Leaves a little dry and lingering on the tongue with a nice warming effect from the rye.
Overall Score
3.8 / 5
A well-balanced, consistent flagship bourbon designed as an approachable daily drinker with good structure for cocktails like Manhattans.
