About this bottle

This first ever Bottled-in-Bond style from FEW Spirits is a four-year-old bourbon produced in accordance with the standards of the Bottled In Bond Act of 1897. The product is intended as both a celebration of the brand’s 10th anniversary and a lead up to the 125th anniversary of the passage of the Bottled In Bond Act. It is is made from 70% corn, 20% rye, 10% malted barley. Adhering to BIB standards, it is aged in Minnesota oak barrels for a minimum of 4 years and bottled at 100 proof. As of November, 2021, the product will initially be limited to 2000 cases, released in select markets in NY, IL, CA, FL, CO, and through a direct-to-consumer channel, with plans for more availability in 2022 and beyond.

Backset 3.0

The nose is not very inviting. Strong spicy wood character with a defining finish of corn on the cob. Something is not quite right with this offering, what it is I cannot tell. It’s fun to compare and contrast this to other Few bottles that don’t have to confine to bottled in bond standards. Whether they’ll distill and bottle this again is going to be interesting to me…I hope they held some barrels back and will be releasing a longer aged version, the youth of this whiskey is very apparent.

Daveco select: Nose very grain foreard. Some citrus and chicory notes. Palette: sweet up front of caramel, more of that grain, slight herbal finish. Slight bite
