Tasting Notes

About:

Four Branches is a blend of straight bourbon whiskeys bottled at 96 proof. The brand is so named in honor of the service of the four owners, who each served in four different branches of the US military.
Appearance:
Clear Caramel
Nose:
Fig, a hint of char, classic big bourbon
Palate:

Opens with a big old sweet bourbon yellow, with the corn predominating but given a second, the rye notes start to lead; finish with a short hot flash.


Finish:
The rye spice starts to dissipate, a peek of a diesel fishing boat, blending with crabapple.
Comments:
A very respectable bourbon, on the spicy rather than on the sweet side. Love to see the mash bill.
