Gold color. Aromas and flavors of caramel apple candies, dry hay and corn bread, and cedar cigar box with a silky, bright, dry medium-to-full body and an amusing, medium-long finish displaying overtones of candied red delicious apple, caramel drizzle on a poached pear, and vanilla butterscotch. Simple but delicious, with waves of caramel candied apple.

About

Blended Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Blended Straight Bourbon is a blend of straight bourbon whiskies with an added allowance to contain coloring and/or flavoring, something that is not traditionally allowed in the straight bourbon category. In addition to this allowance, a Blended Straight Bourbon's components do not need to be distilled in the same state as one another.
