Michael Gerard left Australia in 1992 for Georgia. After working in the brewing industry, he decided to jump into the spirits category in 2019. As part of the move he developed a new way of purifying spirits that he calls, "Quantum Distillation Refinement Technology" (QDRT.) It's a 5-stage process that claims to eliminate up to 65% of congeners, allowing the full flavor of the spirit to shine without the burn. Legends Distillery in Cummins, GA is the result of Gerard's work, highlighted by their Single Barrel Bourbon. It's bottled at barrel proof (my pour was 123.70 proof) and is at least aged 3+ years (mine was aged for seven.) On the nose, it's sweet vanilla cream, butter, and a hint of nutmeg. The palate continues those sweet notes with caramel and a nice transition to those baking spices we have come to expect. The finish is short, with a drying effect. For a single barrel, barrel-proof sourced bourbon the finish is indeed shorter than expected. The body is on the thin side. Indeed the flavor and notes of the nose and palate make this one a serviceable sipper, but I would have liked to see more from the finish.
