Bardstown Bourbon Company Collaborative Series Kentucky Straight Bourbon Finished in Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Stout Barrels

Details

The Bardstown Bourbon Company Collaborative Series is a unique offering that marries the bold character of Kentucky straight bourbon with the innovative essence of craft beer aging. This particular expression is finished in barrels that previously held Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Stout, offering a cross-pollination of flavors that is both adventurous and harmonious.

TastingNotesNose: The nose presents an inviting complexity with the richness of caramel and vanilla from the bourbon interlaced with the dark chocolate, coffee, and toasted malt notes introduced by the stout barrels. Subtle hints of dark fruits and an underlying oakiness provide additional depth.

Palate: On the palate, this bourbon offers a tapestry of flavors where the initial sweetness of molasses and brown sugar is perfectly complemented by the robust stout influences, unveiling notes of bitter chocolate, espresso, and a smoky char. The creamy texture adds a layer of decadence to the sipping experience.

Finish: The finish is long and luxurious, echoing the interplay of bourbon and stout. The sweetness of the bourbon fades into the dry, roasted bitterness of the stout, leaving a warm and satisfying aftertaste with a hint of oak spice.

The Bardstown Bourbon Company Collaborative Series with Goose Island Bourbon County Brand Stout barrels stands as a testament to the innovative spirit of American whiskey and craft beer.
