Redwood Empire Cask Strength Pipe Dream (2022 Release)
Bourbon
Redwood Empire // USA
Redwood Empire Cask Strength Pipe Dream is one of three limited edition bottlings featuring uncut and unfiltered whiskeys of the distillery's core portfolio. Pipe Dream is its blended bourbon offering and here four different grains make up its recipe — 74% corn, 20% raw rye, 4.5% malt barley and 1.5% wheat.
The bourbons featured here were aged in 53-gallon, char #3 barrels for a minimum of four years and up to 12 years. Since they were aged in the California fog belt, the cask strength proof of 116.8 is lower than many other such offerings of similar makeup. Cask Strength Pipe Dream is available nationwide as of October 2022.

Tasting Notes
"On the nose the bourbon shows a mix of dried and fresh grass notes as well as oak, peanuts, and light vanilla. Without water the bourbon is a bit prickly with the barrel spices, but a splash of water softens those rough edges. You can pick up a bit of the young bourbon in the blend, but overall it's a nice bourbon, particularly if you enjoy those without an overwhelming sweet and vanilla-focused flavor. It's more herbal and robust. "
