Old 55 Distillery

750 ML (Standard)
Palate: A very viscous mouthfeel started the journey across my palate.At the front, it was most definitely corn.At mid-palate, I found creamy vanilla and ginger.Ginger isn't something I typically find in Bourbon.On the back, it was a mix of toasted oak and walnuts.
Nose: Aromas of corn and oak were easily identified.Underneath them was a floral quality, which then morphed to a crisp Sauvignon Blanc and grass.When I inhaled through my mouth, I picked up Andes mint and, again, grass.
Finish: The finish was medium in length and gave up dry oak and barrel char.
Old 55 took sweet corn, the same corn you'd eat right off the cob, then ground and distilled it for their 100% Sweet Corn Bourbon.This is a unique Whi skey that defies the industry standard, and Jason's goal to discover his spotted unicorn.Old 55 uses only the heart cuts with no head or tails.After distillation, it is proofed between 112'and 115', then placed into new, charred 30-gallon oak barrels.
