TASTING NOTES

NOSE
Toffee apples, sandalwood, and a touch of tarragon herbiness. Damp oak hides at the back along with more green, leafy herbal rye notes. Toffee and caramel develop, along with Portuguese custard tarts and crème brûlée. Baking spice creeps in around the edges with a touch of clove.
-
PALATE
Rich and thickly textured spirit – almost like liquid toffee. Big spice builds, with dark liquorice and treacle toffee at the back. The leafy tarragon is back, with lots of rye spice – savoury notes to balance the sweetness. Digestive biscuits and black bread build along with a touch of mintiness.
-
FINISH
Mint choc chips and aniseed balls to start. Toffee builds, followed by darker treacle notes . Buy the Four roses single barrel vs small batch select from Bourbon vendor .
WHAT IS BOURBON ?
- Bourbon is a corn-based, aged spirit that, while legally can be produced anywhere in the U.S., is Kentucky’s signature liquor; in fact, Kentucky distilleries make 95% of the world’s bourbon and the Bluegrass State hosts over a million visitors annually for bourbon tasting tourism.
Because of the liquor’s aging process variation, bourbon’s colors range from light amber to dark caramel and each bottle must contain at least 40% ABV. Bourbon can only be called bourbon if it’s aged in an oak barrel; barrels must be new and are pre-charred to help the liquid extract as much flavor as possible from the wood.Four roses small batch select price
