What do you get when you combine bourbon (whiskey) and bourbon (biscuits)? You get Bourbon Bourbon. That's just how maths works. Next question: what happens when you add candy canes to that equation? You get Bourbon Bourbon Candy Cane, of course! We've checked all our sums, and this is the result – a lip-smacking, festively-themed, deliciously surprising spirit made with Kentucky bourbon, dark chocolate, vanilla, and peppermint, alongside with actual bourbon biscuits and real candy canes! It's one of those flavour combos that you don't really see coming, but there is definitely a flavour triangle there. Mint and chocolate is good. Chocolate and bourbon is good. Bourbon and mint is good (hence why the Mint Julep is so popular). When you look at it like that, you're left thinking, "Oh, well yeah, this totally makes sense. How'd this not happen before?"
Brilliantly chocolatey – freshly baked brownies and chocolate buttons. A waft of fresh mint sweetness cuts through the richness, before diving back into rounded vanilla and caramel.
Soft butterscotch and oak warmth up front, followed shortly by mint chocolate chip ice cream in a wafer cone, with a drizzle of chocolate sauce. A hint of malty, biscuity chocolate develops a smidge later.
Quite buttery on the finish, with light hints of peppermint leaf sticking around.
The bold introduction of candy cane minty notes most definitely makes for a tasty twist on this already cracking combo.

It’s…ok. The mint is a bit overpowering and you lose that chocolateyness.
pleasant sweet taste
Ho Ho Ho my God Very nice Very Christmassy
Really pleasant taste, great for something different. The description is fairly accurate with the candy cane having the leading flavour before the bourbon biscuit. Very enjoyable though I would possibly try the plain Bourbon Bourbon next time. Worth a try all the same and it will definitely not go to waste. ?
I feel like they’ve tried to hard messing with different options here. The bourbon biscuit version is lovely, but the addition of the mint wrecks this. It’s too complex a taste, confusing the palate. It’s the first taster I’ve been tempted to pour straight down the sink.
