Final Thoughts
Perhaps Jefferson’s most famous release, Ocean is matured on ships that travel across the globe. The nose carries salted caramel, sea breeze, and tropical fruit. On the palate, waves of toffee, brine, roasted nuts, and citrus zest intertwine with vanilla and oak. The maritime influence adds a savory-salty edge, making it unlike traditional bourbons. The finish is long and complex, with salted caramel, dried fruit, and oak lingering. Best neat, it pairs beautifully with oysters, grilled shrimp, or dark chocolate with sea salt. A bold experiment that delivers a truly distinctive bourbon experience.
