Description
Proof and Wood The Representative takes you on a flavor journey that evolves throughout the tasting experience. Here’s a more elaborate breakdown of its description and taste notes:
Aroma
- The initial sniff greets you with unexpected notes. Instead of the typical caramel or vanilla found in many bourbons, The Representative offers a unique combination of earthy and sweet aromas.
- The earthy side presents itself with hints of tree bark or even leather, adding a touch of complexity.
- Balancing this earthiness is a surprising sweetness reminiscent of crème pâtissière, a rich French pastry cream.
Taste
- The first sip delivers a rich and smooth mouthfeel, despite being bottled at barrel proof.
- The initial sweetness from the nose translates into subtle hints of browned butter on the palate.
- Unexpectedly, a delicate floral note of violet emerges, adding another layer of complexity.
- The rye grain in the mash bill starts to shine through with a subtle peppery spice that builds gradually.
Finish
- The finish is where The Representative truly sets itself apart. It’s long-lasting, leaving a pleasant warmth on your tongue.
- The earthy notes return, but with a twist. You might pick up hints of licorice root or even a touch of tobacco.
- The spice intensifies slightly, with traces of bitter herbs lingering in the background.
