Ranger Creek .36 Bourbon. Image courtesy Ranger Creek Brewing & Distilling.This bourbon from San Antonio’s Ranger Creek Distillery is young (9 months), but very drinkable with a nose full of oak, vanilla, tannins, and caramel cola. The taste is spicy and crisp with good oak, black pepper, and vanilla notes. The finish is long and peppery, but overall, one-dimensional. This is one I’d like to try with after it’s been in the cask for a couple of years, because the potential is excellent. (2012)
