Cost
This Kentucky Straight Corn Whiskey has been bottled in bond, so this is aged for at least 4 years and bottled at 100 proof. The mash bill is 90% corn with the remainder comprised of rye and barley. Mellow Corn is aged in used, charred white oak barrels (could also have been aged in new, UNCHARRED barrels) and is produced by the fine folks over at Heaven Hill.

Tasting Notes
"Though a bit aggressive on the nose with alcohol, you will discover buttered popcorn, peanut butter, and cinnamon. The texture is naturally on the cream corn side and finishes a touch hot. This may not be your everyday sipper, but if you are looking to further your whiskey education, you've got to give this one a try. "
