Blood Oath Bourbon Pact #1
Country: USA
Region: Kentucky
Type: Bourbon
Bottler: River City Distilled Products Co. (Luxco)
ABV: 49.3%
Score: 93 Points
This whiskey was blended from three different Kentucky Bourbons by Luxco’s John Rempe, and the result is complex and intense. The nose has a great cinnamon apple pie note, along with molasses, brown sugar, a hint of clove, charred oak along the lines of day-after campfire wood, and a touch of grilled pork chops. The taste is intense and spicy, but remains well-balanced with strong cinnamon and chili powder notes accentuated by vanilla, molasses, and dark chocolate notes underneath. The finish is long and slow to fade with strong spicy notes and a mouth-watering juiciness of apples and orange peel. Outstanding! (June, 2015)
