Brush Creek Straight Bourbon Whiskey

4-12 Years
Straight Bourbon
Brush Creek
$55
Four-grain blend (corn, rye, wheat, barley)
Nose
Waft of caramel and fruit with apparent oak. Belgian waffle, candied pecans, and overripe stone fruit notes with a unique savory character that's hard to describe but recognizable.
Palate
Baking spices, overripe peaches, anise, and that same savory note from the nose with a bit of fruit.
Overall Score
4 / 5
A well-blended, sessionable four-grain bourbon that successfully marries younger and older whiskey components with complex, unusual flavor notes.
