Description
Brother’s Bond Straight Bourbon Whiskey boasts a deep amber color, hinting at the rich flavors waiting within. On the nose, a delightful interplay of aromas unfolds. Sweet notes of vanilla and caramel take center stage, likely influenced by the aging in virgin oak barrels. Some reviewers also detect hints of baking spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, perhaps hinting at the rye grain in the mash bill.
The first sip delivers a full-bodied and satisfying mouthfeel, thanks to the bottling at cask strength. The initial sweetness from the nose translates onto the palate, offering flavors of vanilla bean and honey. As you savor it, deeper notes emerge. Toasted nuts like almonds and pecans add a savory dimension, while hints of dried fruits like raisins and figs provide a touch of sweetness and complexity. The rye influence becomes more apparent here, with a subtle peppery spice tingling on the tongue.
The finish of Brother’s Bond is long and lingering, allowing all the flavors to linger pleasantly. A touch of oak char lingers alongside the fading sweetness, creating a well-balanced and satisfying conclusion. Some reviewers also note a hint of citrus zest in the finish, adding a refreshing touch.
