Final Thoughts
This straight bourbon is a tribute to the American West, with part of its proceeds supporting conservation efforts. On the nose, it offers vanilla bean, caramel corn, and ripe apricot with a hint of cinnamon. The palate delivers sweet corn, toffee, ripe pear, and baking spices, rounded by gentle oak. Medium-bodied and smooth, it finishes with vanilla cream, cinnamon sugar, and a touch of honey. Extremely versatile, it’s delightful neat, over ice, or as the backbone of classic cocktails. Pair with fried chicken, apple pie, or aged cheddar for an elevated experience.
