1792 Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon (46.85% abv)

The distillery was named 1792, the year in which Kentucky became a state. A gold medal winner at the 2018 International Spirits Challenge. A high rye component adds peppery lift to the predominant and sweeter corn in this bourbon, but this is a rich, creamy spirit at its core. Brown sugar, butter, toffee, apple pie and licorice come through on a velvety texture. It carries the 46.85-per-cent alcohol well, thanks to its depth of flavour.
