Liberty Pole Bourbon Whiskey

I made last minute detour on my way home to Ohio to check out this craft distillery. The main draw to me was of course the chance to try a peated bourbon. First off off the aesthetics of this place are great and I loved learning about the story behind the branding. The distiller and family were all there that day for bottling and they where the greatest hosts. Walking me through the tasting and even sipping with me so we could exchange tasting notes. The distiller is truly passionate and knowledgeable about his craft, experimenting with not only peat but also a unique bloody butcher corn. This red corn gave all thier whiskey a pleasently creamy feel with a leather earthy note that sets it apart from the standard off-the-shelf brands. I want to personaly thank the distillery for sharing thier passion and for a taste of a cast strength honey barrel (amazing!). They made a fan, and I will be watching to see what they do as thier whiskey continues to age. Oh and the peated bourbon didn't disappoint.

Nice, sweet clean drinking bourbon Nose with chocolate notes Palette with earthy corn notes. The wheat in the mash gives a good rounded taste that together with the charred new oak barrels compliment the butcher corn very well. Believe it is aged around the 2 year mark and barrelled just around 55% Excellent bourbon and very reasonable priced

Was lucky enough to take a tour of the distillery recently. Beautiful facility and great story. The only “Kentucky sryle” rickhouse is Pennsylvania ad far as Im aware. Liberty Pole has a new fan afterctye tasting. The high rye bourbon and the rye are really good.

Total rubbish. This has a strong nose and palate of tequila. Will let sit and revisit after initial open/pour.

Excellent wheated bourbon, makes you think of weller. Complex, all around great

Smells like hay, pretty good but not amazing
