100% sweet corn
Nose
Corn-forward with estery magic marker notes initially; re-nosing after tasting reveals bubblicious bubble gum throughout; cracker jacks and buttery oily popcorn in the middle.
Palate
Front-end cracker jacks and buttery oily popcorn; smooth, syrupy quality reminiscent of Aunt Jemima syrup; light color more akin to Irish whiskey.
Finish
Sweet powdered sugar finish like opening a wrapper of Bubblicious; unique and smooth with a corn brandy-like quality.
Noteworthy
A uniquely smooth, dessert-like bourbon that showcases the full potential of 100% sweet corn, drinking more like corn brandy than traditional bourbon.
