John J. Bowman Single Barrel Bourbon~ A Virginia single barrel bourbon from A. Smith Bowman distillery - John J Bowman, named for an early pioneer and Kentucky settler. John J. Bourbon is made from a mash of corn, malted barley and rye that is fermented with a proprietary strain of yeast and distilled three times through “Mary,” a copper-pot still named in honor of John Bowman’s mother. After distillation, the bourbon is aged for ten years in new, American oak casks with a #3 char. Following its decade-long beautyrest, the bourbon is brought to 100 proof before each single-barrel bottle is filled and labeled by hand. Tasting Note~ Nose: Rich with caramel, with subtle hints of leather and figs. Palate: It heats up quickly, spices bursting forward. Vanilla cools it down and toffees sweeten it for a wonderful balance. Finish: Sweet and long. Award~ World Whiskies Award 2017 - World's Best Bourbon |
