Buzzard's Roost Distillery introduces Buzzard’s RoostFour Grain Double Oak Bourbon. This new offering showcases the distillery's commitment to exploring complex flavor profiles through its proprietary double oak process-this time using bourbon distilled from four grains.
How It's Made: Sourced from a trusted distillery in Ohio, the mash billfeatures73%corn,16%wheat,6%rye,and5%malted barley. Buzzard’s Roost leveraged its lightly charred, precision-toasted oak for secondary maturation, lending intriguing layers of flavor to the bourbon. The bourbon is 5 years old, and was bottled at 100 proof.
What They're Saying: "We’ve always been fascinated by how different grain combinations interact with new oak," said Judy Hollis Jones, Co-founder/CEO of Buzzard's Roost. "The Four Grain recipe offers a beautiful balance of sweetness and spice. Our double oak process enabled us to amplify the vanilla and baking spice notes, resulting in a bourbon that is both complex and incredibly smooth."
Tasting Notes: Aromas of baking multigrain bread with brown sugar and a hint of baking spices. The palate delivers notes of rich vanilla crème brulée dusted with cinnamon, chocolate-covered toffee, crushed almonds and poached pears. The finish is nutty and warm with a pop of multigrain cereal.
Availability: Online Thursday (2/5) and at Buzzard's Roost Distillery on Louisville's Whiskey Row, Saturday (2.7). Nationwide later this month.
