Country: USA

Region: Texas

Type: Bourbon

Bottler: Lost Lantern Whiskey

ABV: 68.6%

Score: 92 Points

Lost Lantern bottled this single cask of Ironroot Republic Bourbon at a whopping 68.6% ABV, but there’s no sign of alcohol burn on the nose – just touches of caramel candy, baked apples, cocoa powder, and honey. The taste is astringent and peppery with a hint of mesquite, honey, and baked apples. The finish is long and peppery. (July, 2023)
