When in Memphis, why not pick up a Memphis bourbon? Well, it's finished in Memphis anyway. From my quick research I found that this starts it's life in Indiana as a minimum 4 year MGP bourbon. This is supposed to be 35% rye, but it has little in the way of spice, just a hint of cinnamon. Super smooth, and even more so considering it's 100 proof, which is several points higher than many other toasted oak offerings. It's sweet, but not overly so, with notes of caramel and toasted marshmallow. The oak is prevalent, but not overwhelming. This one has great balance. No bitter aftertaste, and very easy drinking. It's not very complex and could be a little spicier, but otherwise this is quite tasty. After my first taste, I would say this is competitive with some of my favorite double oaked/toasted oak bourbons.

I generally run from MGP under 5-6 years but this sounds pretty decent and the toasted notes would be interesting
this one sounds delicious when you want something punchy-but-sweet. new unofficial distiller discord chat https://discord.gg/pAZPb8cWEN
