Jefferson’s
Very Small Batch Blended Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Category: Blended Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Date Tasted:
Country: USA
Alcohol: 41.15%
Medium gold color. Aromas and flavors of warm cinnamon and vanilla roasted pecans, chocolate covered banana chips and coffee beans, cherry dr. pepper, and fresh nutmeg with a round, lively, dry medium body and a tingling, engaging, medium-long finish with notes of milk chocolate, cocoa krispies, caramel, and banana bread with pecans. Just a delightful sipping Whiskey at a very approachable ABV; a pleasant charmer and reminiscent of more old school Bourbon.
