K.LUKE Small Batch Barrel Strength Bourbon Batch 10

Proof: 120.2 proof Bottled 8/15/2024 Mash bill: Corn 69.3% Rye 25.4% Malted Barley 5.3% Tasting Notes: Soft and sweet is the name of the game here. The nose is has sweet pipe tobacco, buttered toffee, tapioca pudding, graham cracker crust, sweet almond croissant, and whipped cream topped lemon chess pie. Even further are subtle pops of allspice, freshly grated nutmeg, dried raspberry, and a hint of leather. The palate begins as balanced and nuanced as the nose, but definitely brings in a bit more wood influence. Syrupy caramel first hits the front of the palate before a wave of coffee cake and toasted oak. The spices begin to set in, ginger, cardamom, nutmeg, and black pepper, but still not forgetting these dense sweeter tones. The finish is soft but persistent - French vanilla with lingering oak char and slightly smoked leather and cherry tobacco.
