70% corn, 20% rye, 10% malted barley
Nose
Brown sugar, cinnamon, coffee cake, orange zest, cereal/bread notes with a breakfast bread character.
Palate
Spicy punch for the proof, cinnamon carries over, sweet corn sweetness, subtle green note but not off-putting, well-balanced with enough backbone.
Finish
Herbal notes emerge with warmth, residual cane sugar sweetness, not cloying.
Recommended
An impressive four-to-five-year-old bourbon with approachable sweetness and spice that punches above its age statement.
