Tasting Notes:
Bourbon candy: frozen fudgesicle bars, amaretto coffee, sticky buns, and pecan brittle.
Thick, white chocolate syrup.
This magnificent Texas Straight Bourbon Whiskey is bold but majestically-crafted, having been aged four years in new American white oak barrels, then transferred to a second new American white oak barrel, and aged for one year. Simply put, this 2-time US Micro Whisky of the Year and San Francisco Double Gold winner is bourbon candy in a bottle.

"Very enticing! Heavy wood and dark cherries on the nose lead to sweet liquorice flavors and a mild peppery finish.”
Gold - Whiskies Of The World 2022
90 Points - Whisky Advocate
"Coffee grounds, red wine, red berries, and light char on the nose. Water brings out floral notes. Overall the flavors come on strong—there is nothing subtle about this one. The palate offers lots of chocolate and cinnamon stick, accented by maraschino cherry. The finish is long and spicy, with Big Red gum and oak. A powerfully forward whiskey in true Texas style, with plenty to offer."
Very Good / Strong Recommendation - Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2022
"Showing a deep, dark caramel in the glass, the nose likewise reflects a prominent nose of burnt salted caramel, charred American oak, candied pecan, and toasted whole wheat bread. Notable wood tannin on the palate followed by smooth vanilla and baked apple into the finish."
