Whiskey JYPSI Tribute Double Barrel Bourbon

Description

Whiskey JYPSI's Tribute Double Barreled Bourbon begins with a commitment to quality rarely seen. Unlike mass-produced bourbons, it starts with varietal-stated grains, many nearly extinct, grown on small family farms. These include the revived Cherokee White Corn, championed by whiskey master, Ari Sussman. After a minimum four years in new charred American Oak, the bourbon undergoes a second barreling for 3-6 months in new American Oak at a lower proof. This costly process, crucial since 60% of bourbon's flavor comes from the barrel, imparts extra vanilla and caramel notes, creating a depth unmatched by everyday bourbons. Bottled at 86-proof, Tribute achieves the ideal balance of rich flavor and smooth drinkability. It's a tribute to the land, the soil, and the resurgence of heirloom grains, a whiskey that transcends conventional production at every stage. Aromas of caramel, toasted vanilla, ripe cherry, oak, baking spices, honeycomb, and charred marshmallow. On the palate, there's caramel, dark chocolate, vanilla bean, cinnamon, dried apricot, roasted nuts, tobacco, and leather. The finish is long with toasted oak, brown sugar, dark fruit and lingering spice.
