102 Proof.

The 10-year-old bourbon originated from a distillery in Oklahoma, though the exact source is not disclosed. Presumably, a good candidate is Prairie Wolf Spirits (part of the Wander Folk Spirits family), which opened in 2012 as the first legal distillery in Oklahoma since prohibition. Its a single barrel, or at least was finished in a single port barrel, or port pipe as they are referred to, which typically range from 550-650 liters in size.

If the label and origin are not unique enough, the whiskeys aroma will convince you. Exceptionally aromatic, its filled with sweet dark fruit scents and begs you to sip. The sip follows with similar flavors and integrates a more familiar caramel underpinning into the base. It finishes with a tapering of those flavors at a medium length. Because it is so aromatic and fruit-forward, those who dont enjoy dark fruit may not find it as enjoyable. But for those who do, the whiskey is extremely satisfying.
