Tasting Notes

About:

Bottled by Treaty Oak Distilling in Dripping Springs, Texas. Aged two years. Mash bill: 70% corn, 21% rye, and 9% barley. 95 proof.
Appearance:
Deep gold in color.
Nose:
It’s very mild, vaguely a whiskey nose. I get aromas of oak and sweet grass.
Palate:


Finish:
Comments:
You almost wouldn’t know this was a bourbon by the nose, and the palate is similar to a rye. I found this whiskey to be mostly smooth with a hot, spicy finish. There are typical bourbon flavors, but not much else. It’s very mild yet warming. It’s pretty tasty for a two year bourbon. I’m curious what it would be with a bit more age.
