Copper and Cask Sauternes Cask Finish Single Barrel Bourbon
119.8 proof 8 years (+ 16 months Sauternes finish) Bourbon Latitude Beverage LLC / MGP Providence, RI $64.99 60% corn, 36% rye, 4% malted barley
Nose

Grape must, raisin, plum, fig, dark fruit-forward character from the Sauternes finish.

Palate

Immediate sweetness from the fortified wine finish balanced with rye spice, very viscous and oily mouthfeel coating the tongue, half-sweet and half-dry complexity.

Finish

Dry rye spice emerges to control and balance the wine-driven sweetness, thick silky texture with lingering fruit and spice notes.

Really good
A sophisticated cask-finished bourbon where the Sauternes barrels impart luxurious fruit and sweetness that is expertly tempered by high-rye spice.
