Wilderness Trail Bottled in Bond Small Batch Bourbon (High Rye Bourbon)
Bourbon
Wilderness Trail // Kentucky, USA
Wilderness Trail Bottled in Bond Small Batch Bourbon marks the third whiskey release for the Danville, KY based distillery. This small batch bourbon release uses rye instead of wheat as the secondary grain -- 64% corn, 24% rye, 12% malted barley. The corn and rye are grown by a local farm and the grain bill uses a sweet mash rather than a sour mash like many bourbons use.
Each batch is made from 10-12 barrels. Bottled without chill-filtration at 100 proof. Available beginning April 2019.

Tasting Notes
"The nose is a pleasing swirl of spring herb notes of thyme and mint mixing with red apples and cinnamon. The palate exhibits flavors of roasted peanuts and caramel along with sharper spices of clove, black pepper, and hot cinnamon. The whiskey has a dense weight that coats the tongue, but with measured sweetness. The finish lingers with underlying earthiness and spice. "
