Rare Character Old Mate Bourbon
Age: 6 years 1 month
Proof: 116.6 / 58.3% ABV
Mash: 60 corn / 36 rye / 4 malt
Heavy toasted heads Tasting notes: Brown sugar, cherry, spice - similar to a classic cherry soda fountain drink. Clove, liquorice, nutmeg, with a touch of citrus and tobacco on the finish. The heavy toast heads add to the richer spice and earthen notes. Spending time in all three environments is a unique profile for this age and mashbill. While typically spice-heavy and rye grain forward, the grain has aged out and more of the barrel influence comes forth. "An extra fizzy cherry cola from a old school soda fountain"
