California Oak Kentucky Straight Bourbon
88 Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon Broken Barrel Whiskey Company 70% corn, 21% rye, 9% malted barley

Sweet and aromatic with barn tobacco, cherry, and dark fruit notes. Floral and fruity on the nose.

Starts sweet and wine-forward, then develops pop rocks-like tingle and sizzle across the mid-palate with a little dryness reminiscent of dry red wine. Tannic and vinous with acidity.

Sweet finish with a dry middle section, lingering with wine-like dryness and tannin elements.

Overall Score
4 / 5
A wine-forward, gold medal-winning California Cabernet and French oak-finished bourbon with sophisticated dry red wine characteristics and a pleasant spice.
