Copper & Kings American Apple Brandy Cask Finished Blend, 55.5%

Price: 65 Issue: Summer 2024 Reviewer: Shane English Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey

The nose evokes stewed fruit in cinnamon syrup, brown sugar, caramel apples, and cloves. The proof is well managed on the nose and the sip, with the whiskey delivering peach cobbler and apple cider doughnuts braced by an oak-forward bite. With water, the fruits become richer with peach melba and apple pie a la mode. The finish is long and rich with vanilla, whipped cream, and cinnamon softening the oaky bite.
