Old Grand-Dad Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, New Charred American Oak Cask, 43%

The dried apricot and occasional dried-fruit notes give this bourbon a welcome fruit edge. Oak, caramel and vanilla keep it grounded, while rye spice adds a firmer finish. A warm, straightforward combination that sounds appealing.
