Chicken Cock Bootlegger’s Reserve

This blend of bourbon and rye offers quince kiwi jasmine honey vanilla angel food cake sultanas and lemon meringue on the nose. The palate is somewhat barrel-forward but offers coconut banana flan maple syrup cinnamon roasted almonds and lemon with an appealing char note. The finish is gently spicy smooth and light ending with sweet vanilla and soft oak. Perhaps a bit closed at times and lacks some cohesiveness but it’s very easy to enjoy.
