75% corn, 20% rye, 5% malted barley
Nose
Spicy and rich aromatics.
Palate
Extremely rich and flavorful with complexity, spicy character balanced by residual sweetness, dark fruit and dried fruit notes, char and slight smokiness, fruitiness throughout, high proof punch with layers.
Finish
The oak hasn't dried it out too much, maintains sweetness that counteracts the high proof.
Remarkable
An exceptionally rich and flavorful six-year bourbon with remarkable complexity and layers that belie its youth, elevated by single-pass pot still distillation.
