About this bottle

This expression is part of the brand's Uncommon Barrel Collection. It consists of a bourbon made from a mash bill of 75% corn, 21% rye, and 4% malted barley. It is matured in traditional new, charred American oak, then finished in apple wood using a proprietary "pressure aging" process. It is bottled at 90 proof.

dietsnapple 3.8

Nose - notes of caramel apple and cinnamon Palate - very sweet, not overly complex; has a thin mouthfeel, but it is pleasant for what tastes like a young bourbon, surprisingly has some kick for a 90 proof with baking spices shining through at the end Finish - short finish with some warmth Received this bottle as a gift. It is a surprisingly pleasant sipper. Its light color makes me assume it is a young spirit, but the bottle writes that it is "finished with an advanced pressure and oxygenation process which adds a series of flavors and aromas never before experienced in traditional whiskies". I would say the technique has paid off for this distillery, as it has exceeded all expectations for a Cleveland bourbon.

Wes Farno 3.8

Very soft nose and a sweet mouth feel. You can taste the apple with easy. Has almost a slight green apple taste. Very smooth finish Cleveland is very creative in how they finish their bourbon. It’s a different flavor but I enjoy it. I like both the Apple wood and the Cherry wood

Needs ice but once the proof is cut it is very drinkable.
