Tasting Notes

"There's no question this is still bourbon, but the Cabernet does have quite the influence on the whiskey. There is a distinct grapey-ness that mixes in with the roasted cereal components, imparting a flavor reminiscent of a PB & J-filled cookie with vanilla frosting and spices. The jammy sweetness is set off with more of the Cabernet influence that includes some herbal wintergreen and sage notes, but also a good deal of tartness (tannic acid) that keeps the finished bourbon from tasting too terribly sweet. It's a dessert bourbon for sure, but it would also make a seriously decadent base for a Manhattan. "
