Bourbon
Tahwahkaro
Palestine, TX
$50
65% corn, 11% wheat, 11% rye, 13% malted barley
Nose
Buttered caramel and sour grape wine notes. Burnt sugars reminiscent of creme brûlee preparation. Dark and layered with subtle coffee, oak, leather, and baking chocolate notes opening up as it airs.
Palate
Smooth entry with chocolatey character and no alcohol bite. Pecan pie sweetness from the corn balanced by wheat softness and rye spice. White pepper warmth developing across the palate without heat.
Finish
Peppery finish with chocolate persistence and a smooth, clean descent. No Kentucky hug or harsh alcohol.
Really good
An exceptionally smooth and well-balanced Texas bourbon with impressive dark color and rich chocolate-caramel character that punches well above its age statement.
