This limited edition A. Smith Bowman release was made from 7 to 8 year old bourbon which underwent a unique finishing process. The bourbon was finished for six months inside of barrels which housed coffee beans for between two and five weeks. It's uncut and unfiltered, and bottled at cask strength, 67.3% ABV (134.6 proof). Only one barrel was produced. Limited release.

Unique and delicious. The nose is pure wet coffee grounds. Palate is typical Bowman but punched up by the barrel proof with espresso, oak, and vanilla notes. The uniqueness alone makes it a must try if you have the chance.
This is very strange and feels more like a liqueur--not tasting nearly as high as it's proof. I think I like it, in small doses, but I can't be sure because it confuses my palate.
