Boulder Spirits – Bottled in Bond

Boulder Spirits ⁣- Straight Bourbon Whiskey – Bottled in Bond – ⁣50% ABV ⁣⁣

This Boulder Spirits gem just won double gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Comp 2022 and I can definitely see why.  ⁣⁣

Perfectly balanced in my opinion.  ⁣51%  corn, 44% malted barley and 5% rye – Scottish copper pot still and aged a minimum of 4 years in new American oak barrels.  ⁣⁣

Here are my notes – ⁣⁣

Colour – Dark amber ⁣⁣

Nose – Butterscotch, pear, vanilla, oak.  It’s fresh and light

⁣⁣Palate – light and fruity with notes of caramel and woody notes.  Exceptionally smooth.⁣⁣

Finish – medium in length. A bit of spice comes through (most likely from the 5% rye in the mash) I also get a bit of honey at the end. ⁣⁣

Overall, I can definitely see how this one is receiving so much praise.  I’ll definitely be add more from Boulder Spirits to my shelf in the near future.  This one is going down quickly.

⁣⁣Cheers!
