This is the second batch for Redwood Empire's Grizzly Beast Bottled in Bond Bourbon. Like the previous edition, this is a grain-to-glass offering from the California distillery which is blended from bourbon distilled in spring 2017 using different mash bills. Ultimately, the final blend works out to a mash bill of 66% corn, 23% rye, 7% wheat, and 4% malted barley which differs from the previous release.

Tasting Notes

"The aroma of the bourbon is a mix of black cherry and dried herbs along with a touch of vanilla and toasted oak. Moving on to the taste you'll find the bourbon continues with these notes with a moderately full feeling in the mouth. The fruity and spicy flavors stay with you on the dry, but not too dry, finish. A fairly balanced flavor overall for this 5 year-old bourbon. "
