Rock Town 1 Year Old (That Boutique-y Bourbon Company)
The second independently bottled bourbon from Rock Town in Arkansas by That Boutique-y Bourbon Company! On the label, distillery founder Phil Brandon calls down lightening from the sky to char those barrels so he can fill 'em with Rock Town's Arkansas Lightening to age some tasty bourbon.
Batch 2 is a release of 190 bottles.
‘That Boutique-y Whisky Company’ bottles single malts, single grains and bourbons from a variety of renowned distilleries as well as producing award-winning blended malts and blends. These whiskies are adorned with cultish graphic novel-style labels.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Through barrel char earthiness and dusty oak comes crystallized caramel, toffee apples and zesty orange rind. Fresh peppermint and herbal thyme develop, among an almost eucalyptus spice note. A little peppery vanilla fizzes throughout.
Palate
The palate becomes more vegetal, with green tea, bruised apples and loose leaf tobacco. Woody sultanas and sour cherry brings fruity complexity, as dusty oak and pencil shavings add aromatic depth. There’s lingerings of butterscotch, vanilla cola and corn sweetness in the backdrop.
Finish
Plenty of berry notes, blackberry and a hint of raspberry, with cinnamon soda.
Overall
Sheer class for a dram its age - depth, variety and oodles of flavour. Properly yummy.
