Three Chord Un-Edited Cask Strength Blend of Straights, 59%

Price: 70 Issue: Spring 2026 Reviewer: Julia Higgins Category: Bourbon/Tennessee Whiskey

A blend of 4 year old Tennessee bourbon, 6 year old Indiana bourbon, and 7 year old Kentucky bourbon, this starts strong with grape jelly, cherry cola, baking spice, and raspberry rugelach wafting from the glass. For its proof, the mouthfeel is velvety smooth, but soon enough there’s plenty of heat in the form of Red Hots and Mexican hot chocolate. As the heat subsides, sweeter flavors of crème patisserie and baking spice stick out. The experience ends on a delightful note, as rich chocolate and raspberry coulis swirl about.
