Consider this bourbon a secret weapon in your cocktail-making kit.
It’s not that this bourbon is bad, however, it’s just sort of unremarkable. And maybe that’s okay, as it seems to be aimed towards use in a cocktail instead of sipping. The nose is a bit hot at 100 proof, with some maple and vanilla notes floating around as well. That maple continues onto the palate, but there’s some grainy and earthy notes mingling with burnt orange peel and banana pudding.
If WhistlePig decided to add a bourbon to the lineup that matched the core expressions’ aging standards and was entirely sourced, I wonder how that would taste. I also wonder how the distillery’s own in-house distilled bourbon will taste after ten years. These are fun thought experiments for whiskey nerds, but also does it really matter? Michael Jordan came back to basketball after trying his hand at baseball, and look how that turned out.
