Green River Bourbon (Barrel Sample)
117 proof

Bourbon
Green River Distillery
Owensboro, KY
70% corn, 21% rye, 9% malted barley
Nose
Youthful with hay and grassy notes; earthy and slightly musty with hints of burnt caramel; rich aroma with future promise
Palate
Caramel-forward and drier rather than sweet; green apple bite; spicy with a Kentucky hug from the rye; develops kettle corn and nuttiness on the second sip; reminiscent of pecan swirl breakfast pastries; thick and viscous with good body and texture
Finish
Medium finish with heat appropriate to proof; warming and lingering sweetness
Pleasant
A young whiskey with a youthful nose but an impressive palate that delivers spice, sweetness, and texture with considerable promise for future releases.
