Ironclad Distillery Missouri Toasted Oak Cask Four Grain Bourbon
105 proof NAS Bourbon Ironclad Distillery Newport News, VA $50

Caramel and burnt chocolate with fig preserves and black charred marshmallow notes; toasted oak-forward with dark fruit character.

Initial wave of sweetness from toasted wood sugars followed by rye spice and charred rye toast character; buttery mouthfeel with fig and Turkish fig preserve notes; mid-palate shows bitter dark chocolate and baking chocolate notes with a touch of youth peeking through.

Medium finish with pepper and a hint of heat; some bitterness carries through from the chocolate notes.

Pleasant
A well-layered craft bourbon with distinctive toasted oak character that shows promise and complexity despite some youthful notes suggesting it may benefit from additional aging.
