Taconic Distillery Dutchess Private Reserve American Flag Special Edition Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Adorned with a very patriotic label, this Dutchess Private Reserve bourbon offers a rather sweet nose, with corn and cereal grain, as well as vanilla. On the palate, you’ll find a bourbon made for sipping, eminently enjoyable and easygoing. Very smooth, with more vanilla, honey, and malty sweetness. The finish is pleasant and warm, lingering without overstaying its welcome. 

The bourbon is very consistent throughout. Add ice and the bourbon becomes chewier, with more pronounced grain flavors and a shorter, sharper finish.

Made with Taconic water, which is brought to the surface through a rich deposit of Dolostone. Similar to limestone, Dolostone is rich in calcium carbonate and magnesium. These minerals help to impart another layer of rich butteriness found in their spirits.

Aged a minimum of two years in New oak, char 3, Coopers Select, 53-gallon Independent Stave Company barrels.
