I had a 1oz pour of this at a family members house during Easter dinner. The odd shaped glass I used really pushed the alcohol scent right into my nose, and it burnt a little. After my first sip I moved the glass and the scent was much more of a traditional bourbon smell. The taste was a little sweeter than the four grain bourbon, even though this was a higher proof. I believe that the corn heavy mash contributed to the sweeter taste. I would definitely like to have another taste of this the next time I am around that house.
Laws Two Grain Straight Bourbon Bottled-In-Bond (2017 Release)
About this bottle
Released in June 2017, this straight bourbon will be available for purchase in Colorado only. As the name suggests, it is comprised of only two grains which is a departure from their more common four-grain mashbill. Like their Straight Corn Bottled-In-Bond, the mashbill is 86% corn and 14% malted barley. The difference here is that this is aged in 53-gallon heavily-charred new American white oak. Aged for at least 4 years and bottled at 100 proof, 2400 bottles were produced.

Had a tasting of this at the Laws Distillery during the release party. It was good, but nothing distinct stuck out. It was a bit expensive ($60 I think). I bought a bottle mainly because it was Batch #1 & looks good on the shelf at home.
It’s very interesting. I taste lemongrass or something very sour.
