Rabbit Hole Derringer Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in PX Sherry Casks
93 proof NAS Bourbon Rabbit Hole Louisville, KY $70–$80 68% corn, 18% wheat, 14% malted barley
Nose

Sweet and fruity with prominent caramel and vanilla. Fresh floral notes reminiscent of rose petals, with hints of pear and peach from the wheated mash bill and barley. Raisin notes from the sherry influence.

Palate

Nice upfront flavor with good balance. Fruity front end followed by baking spice on the mid-palate. Plenty of caramel and vanilla as expected from bourbon, with some dryness on the back end.

Finish

Short finish that drops off rather quickly. Dry with a lack of oiliness and limited lingering flavor.

Respectable
A well-crafted finished bourbon with a balanced nose and palate that shows good influence from the PX sherry cask, though the finish lacks length.
