Notes

Cinnamon spiced raspberry soufflé combined with a classic mint julep cocktail was a very promising opening gambit. On the palate a tight battle between sweetness (macarons and dolly mixtures) and spiciness (ginger and cayenne pepper) whereas the judgement was a unanimous draw. Following the addition of water, we had leather chairs and freshly polished furniture with cherry cotton candy popcorn while to taste carrot cake with cream cheese buttercream and a spicy caramel rum sauce. The mash bill for this bourbon consists of 60% corn, 36% rye and 4% malted barley, matured in a #4 char new oak barrel with #2 char heads.
