American Whisky

As a 4 year old, little wood is evident in its flavour. Instead it shows its cereal roots and a foxy quality from its wild yeast strain. This gives Jim Beam White a uniqueflavour not apparent in other Beam products. The colour is a nice, balanced amber, more red than orange. The nose is slightly perfumy. The mouth feel is slightly syrupy.source: The Bourbon Country Reader

Berry Bros & Rudd - Deep and enticing, dusty sweet corn husks mingled with rich seasoned oak notes to provide an assertive, uplifting nose which is softened by honey and vibrant fruit.  The palate expands gloriously with a background sour-mash, chalky hit doused by layers of honey and dark treacle toffee.  Lingering and giving to the death; this is a masterpiece of balance, complexity, texture and structure.

Basil Hayden?s Bourbon is one of four bourbons that comprise Jim Beam?s Small Batch Bourbon Collection. The others are Knob Creek, Baker?s Bourbon, and Booker?s Bourbon. Basil Hayden?s falls first in line proof-wise at 80 proof. While the other three bourbons in the Small Batch Collection all share the same mashbill of 77% corn, 13% rye, and 10% malted barley, Basil Hayden?s is created using Jim Beam?s high-rye mashbill that is found in Old Grand-Dad and Old Grand-Dad 114.

Basil Hayden?s is named after the late Master Distiller Basil Hayden Sr. who was known for his use of high rye bourbon mashbills.

Michter?s whiskeys are proudly all made in Kentucky. They are all single barrel or very small batch. Michter?s takes a ?Cost Be Damned? approach to theproduction of every barrel, including: 1. Air drying the wood used in its barrels, up to 36 months. 2. Toasting barrels prior to charring them so the natural sugar in the wood comes to the surface. 3. Using a low barrel-entry strength of 51.5% ABV rather than the industry standard 62.5%. 4. Heat cycling: heating the warehouse gradually in winter then opening the windows to let it cool again, so the whiskey ages during the frigid winter months. 5. Adopting the best individual filtration technique for each whiskey rather than using the same filtration method for all their whiskeys. Tasting note: Spice with peppery notes, citrus, butterscotch, oak.

J.P. Wiser's Deluxe is a full-flavoured Canadian whisky which offers a rich aroma with a body that is complex and perfectly balanced. Bright golden in colour with a sweet caramel aroma, and a sweet corn meal and vanilla flavour.

This Canadian whisky?s base is double-distilled corn whisky aged for at least 15 years in a combination of brand new white oak casks, once used American bourbon casks and used Canadian whisky casks. The second component is column-distilled rye aged for at least 15 years. It is bottled at 40%.

Tasting Notes: Caramel, toffee, and banana bread with spicy oak notes are pulled into the nose accented by maple sugars. The caramel and toffee flavors quickly shifts to a mid-palate chest warming clove rye spice with a peppery snap. Pleasantly bitter fruit rinds are fresh on the finish.

Michter's Sour Mash Whiskey was once an incredibly popular expression back in the 1970s and 1980s, though in recent years, it had disappeared from the market. However, it has returned in the shape of Michter's US*1 Sour Mash Whiskey - awesome! Very well balanced notes of sugared almonds, cinnamon spice and vanilla sweetness.

It is made according to the traditional sour mash whiskey making process whereby some previously fermented mash is used as the starter for the new mash to be fermented. Typically in most sour mash whiskeys, this ?setback? from the prior fermentation accounts for about 10 to 20 percent of the new mash to be fermented. More than just a sour mash process whiskey, Michter?s Original US*1 Sour Mash is made from a special selection of grains, barrel aged, and later on filtered according to the exacting Michter?s standards. 

The Pepper name goes way back in terms of bourbon production, back to 1776. Even James E. Pepper nick-named the whiskey 'Old 1776'. However, in the latter half of the 1900s, the James E. Pepper name, along with Old 1776 became heard from less and less.

But now, the folks at Georgetown Trading Co. have assumed stewardship of the 1776 brand and proudly brought it back to the spotlight. After plenty of research into the whiskey from years past, including recipes and actual bottles from pre, mid and post Prohibition days, they have relaunched the 1776, starting with this straight bourbon, made with a mash-bill that features over 38% rye and bottled at 50% ABV.

Nose: Zesty citrus, oak-y resin touches, vanilla pod sweetness and a good kick of rye.

Palate: Honey notes open up the palate, giving way to soft vanilla, fruity orange and dark chocolate.

Finish: Very long, with rye bread and cinnamon spice lingering.

1776 Straight Rye Whiskey comes from the James E. Pepper brand, a name that has long been known in the American whiskey world, though not as much recently as it was in the early 1900s. Happily, the 1776 brand has been relaunched and the James E. Pepper legend lives on! This straight rye is made with a mash-bill featuring 90% rye and has been bottled at 50% ABV.

Nose: Big, spicy wafts of rye, with hints of clove and cinnamon underneath.

Palate: Orange zest, heavy rye bread and subtle oak influence.

Finish: Long and very spicy.
