This bourbon from Birmingham, Alabama-based Dread River Distilling Co. was blended by Eboni Major, formerly with Diageo's Bulleit Distilling Co. It is the first release in the brand's Master Series and was made by blending two Kentucky straight bourbon whiskeys, one from October 2017 and another from January 2019. It's bottled at 100 proof. Available for pre-sale at Dread River's website beginning January 2023. (SRP $114.99)

Very pleased with this. Balanced, complex, supple, with fascinating notes of mint and black tea layered over red fruit and a whisper of vanilla. I expected more heat from 100 proof, but was rewarded with finesse instead. What a terrific way to launch Dread River’s Master Series, and congratulations to Eboni Major.
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
