Little Book Chapter 10 All the Wiser 2026
122.6 proof Blend of 4, 9, 11, and 14 year old bourbons Bourbon Beam Suntory / Jim Beam Clermont, KY $160 Blend of undisclosed mash bills (63% corn, 27% rye, 10% malted barley and 77% corn, 13% rye, 10% malted barley)
Nose

Vibrant and mature with beamish nuttiness and subtle sherry influence. Vanilla and oak-forward with a light touch of sherry complexity.

Palate

Rich and decadent with dark Luxardo cherry, chocolate, and snicker-like nuttiness. Molasses and sherry-influenced depth. Tremendous flavor that excites the palate with a little bit of chocolate and candied cherry character.

Finish

Extraordinarily long and sizzling finish that coats the palate with spice and rich fruit. Drying spice lingers well after the sip, refusing to fade quickly.

Impressive
A masterfully composed blend that delivers dessert-like decadence with surprising elegance, making it an ideal after-dinner sipper with remarkable depth and persistence.
