High West American Prairie Bourbon (Batch #16B16), 46%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2016 ● Reviewer: Fred Minnick ● Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey
A blend of straight bourbons. Light straw color. An expressive dark cherry, cooked grains, and wood nose opens up to a bevy of custard, roasted pine nuts, and herbs, with hints of tobacco and smoked hazelnuts. A grain-forward approach leaves it slightly unbalanced, until roasted nuts save the day with a tinge of vanilla and caramel-flavored popcorn. Sourced whiskey.
