Smoke Eye Hill Barrel Proof Straight Bourbon Whiskey
131.4 proof 5 years Straight Bourbon Smoke Eye Hill Colorado Springs, CO $84.99 Blue corn (primary component; specific proportions not disclosed)
Nose

Light and fresh with caramel; deceptively understated for the proof with concentrated richness beneath.

Palate

Pop Rocks effervescence; highly concentrated caramel, brown sugar, barrel char, and cherry; soft texture with decadent richness that commands attention and pauses conversation.

Finish

Long and lingering with concentrated sweetness; reveals new flavors as the whiskey opens in the glass.

Impressive
An expertly crafted barrel-proof bourbon with a deceptively light entry that unfolds into concentrated caramel sweetness and cherry, rewarding patience with a remarkably long and evolving finish.
