“Non-cask-strength house bourbon — Barrell blending at 100 proof”

Tasting notes

nose
cinnamon, toffee, vanilla pudding, and dark fruit over creamy oak
palate
approachable sweet-spice with toffee and vanilla-pudding richness
finish
creamy cinnamon-toffee linger

Mash bill

A blend of several whiskeys, so no single grain split.

Foundation series derived mash often cited around ~23% rye (with corn and malt making up the balance across sourced straight bourbon components). Higher-rye lean than many entry bourbons gives richness at the friendly 100-proof mark. Blender-derived bill, not estate grain.

Cask
New charred oak (sourced straight bourbons; blended in Kentucky)
