Fresh Bourbon Whiskey
While Kentucky has a rich history for spirits a new expression is set to raise the bar. Fresh Bourbon Whiskey is the first bourbon developed grain to glass by African Americans in the state of Kentucky.
Fresh Bourbon Whiskey is made with 60% Corn, 20% Honey Malt, 10% Malted Wheat and 10% Malted Rye. By using a lower volume of corn and introducing specialty malted grains, strong new flavors are developed which balance against the heavy sweet and smokey character from the barrel. Fresh Bourbon is cut using pure water to our preferred neat drinking and cocktail proof of 95 or 47.5% a.b.v.
It is billed as having a nose of honeysuckle, malted grains, fire-grilled sweet corn, a hint of hot water cornbread plus peach and apricot. The flavor profile includes vanilla, brown sugar, oak smoke and nuttiness. The finish is said to be long with warm toffee, dark chocolate and fresh baked pastry. 95 proof. Enjoy as a cocktail, with a splash, rocks or neat.
