A marvellous high-rye bourbon here from the Rabbit Hole Distillery in Louisville, Kentucky! This expression has been dubbed Heigold, inspired by a German stonecutter from the 1800s who settled in Louisville. The whiskey itself is made from a mash bill of 70% corn, 25% malted German rye, and 5% malted barley. After distillation, it's matured in slowly toasted and charred barrels, and eventually bottled up at 47.5% ABV.
Warming cinnamon and caramel, with a hint of Jamaican Ginger Cake underneath.
Thick vanilla pods, dry oak, peppercorn and more cinnamon bringing spiciness.
A smidge of citrus appears through the toffee and toasted spices.

One of the best bourbon I have ever consumed. Normally I drink single malt, but this bourbon amazed me. I feel cardamom too. Very special.
Purchased as I like the occasional old fashioned, very flavourful and a little goes a long way. One of the best bourbons I've tasted.
This is literally the best bourbon I have ever tasted - it has easily become my favourite. It is smooth and silky and just beautiful from start to finish.
This is absolutely delicious and would be one of my top-3 bottles of whisky(ey), if I only had 3! Better than all the under-40 quid bourbons, in my opinion, and even better than 1792, which is pretty good already! Lovely stuff.
The more bourbon I try, the more I am reminded that I need not have bothered and this is all I need. Far superior to everything else at the £50 price point, including Black and Gold, Angel's Envy, Blackland and Mitchers. Smoke on the nose, Vanilla and honey on the front end and deep caramel on the back end........Just sensational and a must try.
