About this bottle

The trend of experimentation seems to be ever more prevalent in young American whiskey brands and McKenzie is no exception. The mashbill is seemingly familiar (70% corn, 20% rye and 10% malted barley) however, the corn and rye are sourced from local area farmers. Then, after going through a double pot-still distillation, it is aged a minimum of 3 years in charred American oak.

Dried fruit on the nose, Caramel and saw dust in the mouth, with a dry finish that comes from the Chardonnay barrels I would think.

Had the pleasure of tasting this at 3 different places in the Finger Lakes, including Finger Lakes Distilling. Very enjoyable!

Aged One 3.3

Nose of dusty, roasted grains. Cotton soft mouth. Raw dough, grains, unsalted pumpkin seeds with a spices barrel finish.

Had this at The Flatiron Room. What's funny is that it was my fave of the night, 4 stars, but it has a low rating

WesLehman 3.8

Awesome drinking this in the finger lakes. Love the fore and after... a little sweet in the middle.

Tasty! Sharp at first but after a few sips, I seemed to get more flavor. Good bourbon
