Bardstown Bourbon Company Discovery Series #9 (75cl, 56.3%)

Bardstown Bourbon Company Discovery Series #9 is the ninth release in the Discovery blending series, a blend of straight whiskeys from four regions at 56.25% ABV in a 75cl bottle. It is built around 8-year-old Georgia bourbon, which makes up 35% of the blend. The rest is 12-year-old Kentucky bourbon at 31%, 17-year-old Tennessee whiskey at 19% and 12-year-old Ontario whisky at 15%, each with its own mash bill. Tasting notes list cocoa nib, plum and cedar box on the nose, lifted by orange peel. The palate is vanilla cream with cinnamon spice, and the finish is indulgent.
