J. Henry & Sons Straight Bourbon Whiskey (Nancy Fraley Cast Strength Pick, ~120 proof, 7 Years)
~120 proof 7 years Bourbon J. Henry & Sons

Rich and complex with vanilla, dark fruit, and cocoa powder chocolate. Rickhouse character present. Subtle nuttiness with a dusty, earthy backbone.

Powerful mid-palate flavor bomb is the star—chocolate mousse, cinnamon red hot candy, cherry, and brown sugar all converge. Creamy and sweet front entry quickly gives way to the spice explosion. Long finish with lingering cinnamon.

Long, warming finish with persistent cinnamon and atomic fireball spice character. The heat lingers on the back of the palate and sides of the tongue without becoming harsh.

Overall Score
4 / 5
A high-proof Wisconsin bourbon with an explosive and memorable mid-palate driven by cinnamon spice and chocolate, though front-of-palate finesse is sacrificed for impact.
