MIC.DROP.2 SINGLE BARREL 13 YEARS OLD CASK STRENGTH STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY

There’s no shortage of rye on the nose, giving this bourbon an intense spice character from the start, pushing forward notes of clove, cinnamon, ample barrel char, and some gentle mint notes that grow in strength the longer the whiskey’s in the glass. There’s a lightly rolling, toasty grain character on the palate, and lots more chocolate here than expected. Though bottled at over 55% abv, the whiskey drinks beautifully without water, lush (but racy) on the palate with notes of scorched citrus, caramel, vanilla, and more of that gentle barrel char lingering on the finish. As the whiskey fades out, a reprise of spice lingers on the throat, bringing the palate into vivid focus while begging the drinker to take another sip. Great stuff!
