Iron Fish Distillery Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Maple Syrup Barrels
86 proof NAS Bourbon Iron Fish Distillery Thompsonville, MI $50 Corn, rye, and malted barley
Nose

Caramel green apple with buttery undertones. Virtually no ethanol presence, very smooth entry.

Palate

Confectionary sugar forward with buttery caramel and red apple notes. Soft and approachable with minimal impact on entry.

Finish

Warm finish with a light hug. Subtle maple syrup barrel influence that enhances rather than overwhelms the base spirit.

Above average
A refreshing summer sipper with restrained maple barrel influence that complements a naturally sweet bourbon base.
