The taste is extremely sweet with vanilla, apple, and spices coming through strongly.
The nose is sweet and slightly peaty, which we thought may come from the ocean air.
A medium, long and smooth finish.
Nor'Easter Bourbon, named for these legendary storms that have battered New England, is made from a mash of 60% corn, 35% barley and 5% rye.After dist illation, the bourbon is aged 30 miles out to sea, typically from four to eight years in 53-gallon, charred American oak barrels sourced from the Buffalo Trace Distillery in Kentucky.
'Our climate and geography have a real noticeable impact on the taste of the bourbon,' says Harman.The distillery's proximity to the ocean and marine haze (Nantucket is nicknamed 'The Grey Lady'?) add a touch of salt to the bourbon.The hints of salt are complimented by notes of mild vanilla, sweet corn and a touch of honey, which precede a medium-long, smooth finish.
