117.6 proof
4 years
Bourbon
Dueling Grounds Distillery
$?
66% corn, 22% soft red winter wheat, 12% malted barley
Nose
Light and soft with caramel, vanilla, and light baking spices; surprisingly delicate for its proof point.
Palate
Smooth and deceptively drinkable despite high proof; soft entry across the palate with light spiced candy and root beer-like notes (sassafras, Angostura bitters quality); minimal spice compared to the bottled-in-bond version.
Finish
Lightly spiced with spice dripping down the sides of the tongue; medium-long finish.
Overall Score
4.2 / 5
An exceptionally smooth cask-strength pour that belies its 117.6 proof with elegant spice and a dangerously drinkable character perfect for sipping on a porch.
