“97-proof Holland brandy-technique blend of multi-age Indiana bourbons”
Tasting notes
- nose
- caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak with a warm rye spice edge from Midwestern high-rye stocks
- palate
- rich and approachable — brown sugar, baking spice, and smooth oak without harsh heat
- finish
- cocoa, spice, and lingering caramel oak
Mash bill
A blend of several whiskeys, so no single grain split.
Sourced Indiana straight bourbon components — typically MGP high-rye mash bills in the classic 21% rye and 36% rye families (exact blend ratio undisclosed). Grain story here is Midwestern corn-and-rye depth selected for caramel-vanilla sweetness and baking spice, then shaped in Holland rather than farm-distilled for this SKU.
