  • Brand: Big Bottom American Straight Bourbon
  • ABV: 45.5%

Color: Deep, rich chestnut

Nose: Wonderful oak presence that reminds me of oak in a well crafted wine. Rum-soaked cherries; white pepper; crème brulee, Big Hunk candy bar (marshmellow with toasted nuts); cloves.

Palate: More of the same! Spicy wood, cinnamon, raisins, rich caramel, pasture butter (lovely viscosity), sweet crème, cherries.

Finish: Medium long; luxurious oak; smooth yet active; sweet notes give way to spice at the death.

As Freddy Mercury sings, "Get on your bikes and ride" . . . all the way to the store to pick up a bottle of Big Bottom Port Finish that will make a bad boy out of you!

I see the title of this distillery was truncated by the system. Here is the info on this whiskey: Big Bottom American Straight Bourbon Finished in Port Barrel. I believe it is a three year bourbon, but I can't be sure. I drink it at a bar and was not able to peruse the bottle very long. This said, I don't believe the bottle had an age statement; however, I'm told that Big Bottom is not miserly about giving out aging info on specific bottles if asked directly.
