Highlights at a Glance

“What if Kentucky took a roadtrip to Texas and introduced its very own small batch bourbon to some Texas mesquite. What if those two became best friends in a bottle a small batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon, refined with American Oak and mesquite charcoals. You might think thats a long way from home for a Kentucky straight bourbon, and youd be right. But turning a what if into a thats it can be pretty tasty.”

“Mellow aromas of maple, vanilla and a hint of dried cherry entice. The palate echoes those flavors, bringing in a light flurry of clove and cinnamon spice. Adding water softens the profile to vanilla cookie dough flavor, sprinkled with ginger and allspice. It was filtered through Texas mesquite charcoal. ” Wine Enthusiast 92 Points
