Green River Full Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon 750mL

Green River Full Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is an exceptional representation of Kentucky's rich distilling heritage, delivered at a formidable 117.3 proof (58.65% alcohol by volume). This full-proof expression is crafted from a select batch of barrels, presenting a bold and uncut showcase of bourbon at its most powerful and expressive.

Whiskey Profile: The choice to bottle Green River Full Proof at barrel strength allows the intricate flavors and robust character of the whiskey to shine through without dilution. The mash bill consists of 70% locally sourced Kentucky corn, providing a sweet foundation, 21% rye, adding a layer of spice, and 9% malted barley, which rounds out the flavor with a touch of nuttiness and depth.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: The aroma opens with an enticing blend of vanilla and caramel, quickly followed by warming spices that hint at the whiskey’s rye content. Underlying notes of dried cherry and cinnamon add complexity.
• Palate: Robust and rich, the palate echoes the nose with flavors of vanilla and caramel, complemented by chocolate-coated peppermints. The mid-palate is enriched with a spicy burst of cinnamon and subtle touches of light leather.
• Finish: The finish is long and satisfying, with a rich mouthfeel that leaves a lingering impression of the whiskey’s deep and complex flavors.

Appearance: This whiskey boasts a deep golden amber color, reflecting its time maturing in charred new American oak barrels, which impart both color and depth of flavor.
