Jacob's Pardon 18 Year Small Batch American Whiskey
142.7 proof 18 years American Whiskey Jacob's Pardon $195

Burnt sugar and high-octane cracker jack character. Sweet bread and cotton candy with a smoky edge. Despite extreme proof, the alcohol does not overwhelm; instead, the nose reveals buttery warmth and sugary complexity.

Intensely sweet with warming, buttery mouthfeel. Cotton candy and sweet smoke character. Cough-syrup-like warming effect that settles aggressively. More complexity than typical American whiskey at this proof level, a product of substantial age.

Long, warming finish with lingering sweetness.

Really good
An unusually complex American whiskey for the category, where 18 years of age provides layered sweetness and subtle sophistication that justifies its extreme proof and price.
