Gambit No. 6 @ 00:41:01
92 proof 6+ years Bourbon (multi-barrel finish) Gambit (Foley Family Spirits) Unknown, Unknown $65 High malt bourbon
Nose

Light after Opumus; complex fruit medley with notes of all berries

Palate

Nuanced at lower proof allowing individual notes to emerge; brightness of Chardonnay; richness and nuttiness of Oloroso; juiciness of Tokai; light butter characteristic from Cabernet; apple brandy tying elements together; minerality from stripped Chardonnay barrels; intentionally constructed chord of flavors

Finish

Clean with integrated wine barrel influences

Very good
A carefully orchestrated six-barrel finish blend that presents as a complex yet integrated whiskey with distinct wine characteristics playing in harmony rather than competition.
