About this bottle

Mosswood whiskeys are purchased from other distillers and then finished in unique casks in Berkeley, California. The whiskey for this expression is a light, primarily corn-based whiskey from Indiana, which was aged for seven years in used bourbon casks. Mosswood then aged this whiskey in a barrel seasoned with cold brew coffee. Incidentally, a "light whiskey" is a whiskey which is distilled over 160 proof but under 190 proof (bourbon cannot be distilled over 160 proof for comparison). It may be aged in either used or uncharred new oak barrels.

I love whiskey and I love coffee. What more could I ask for. I was hesitant buying because I have heard mixed reviews. Maybe I got a great batch. So smooth and got the coffee flavor I was looking for. Going to be buying backup bottles for sure!

Floral notes on the nose, along with some chocolate. Definitely a light whiskey. It's sweet, and the coffee notes are noticeable on the backend, there's a nice lingering espresso shot. Goes great with cigars. 6/25/17
