Bourbon
West Fork Whiskey
Westfield, IN
$49.99
99% corn, 1% malted barley
Nose
Soft, sweet, and approachable with stone fruit, baking spices, cherry, and bubble gum (bazooka bubble gum character). Light ethanol present but not off-putting.
Palate
Sweet umami with barbeque-y notes, creme brulee, toasted marshmallow, and vanilla-heavy finish. Meaty notes with a nice caramel running throughout. Spice on the tail end.
Finish
Vanilla-heavy with lingering sweetness, caramel, and a candy burn quality that fades slowly.
Recommended
A well-crafted, high-proof whiskey with unique corn-forward character showing both sophistication and approachability despite its youth.
