Davidson Reserve Genesis Bourbon
100 proof
6 years
Bourbon
Pennington Distilling Co
70% corn, 25% rye, 5% malted barley
Nose
Toasted marshmallow, kettle corn, and caramel-forward aromatics with a cooked sugar character. Significantly more aromatic intensity than the charcoal-mellowed Tennessee expression.
Palate
Full-bodied and bold with caramel, marshmallow, and popcorn ball sweetness. Creamy texture with hints of good-and-plenty candy (sugary exterior with subtle licorice hint from rye). No burn, excellent sipping quality.
Finish
Lingering sweetness with caramel and confection notes that persist without harshness.
Overall Score
4.6 / 5
An exceptional unfiltered bourbon without charcoal mellowing that delivers robust caramel and candy-like sweetness while maintaining sophistication and approachability.
