TASTING NOTE: This distinctive bourbon aged a minimum of eight years has a high percentage of rye in the recipe. Named 1792 after the year Kentucky joined the union and became state #15, it's made to be bold and expressive. Complex and flavour packed, it has a vanilla oak bouquet with notes of banana and apple. Full bodied with a caramel, vanilla, sweet bourbon taste, it's viscous and smooth while brash and nicely balanced. Score - 93 (Margaret Swaine, winealign.com, April 8, 2015) |
