NV Smoke Wagon Small Batch Indiana Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Smoke Wagon Small Batch Indiana Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Nevada H&C Distilling produces the Smoke Wagon line-up of whiskeys. The Small Batch Straight Bourbon was born of a brainstorming process to solve a particularly thorny problem they were having with bottling an aged, high-rye bourbon that met their profile preferences and standards. Because high-rye bourbon typically ages much faster than higher corn mash bills, the aged high-ryes tend to lose their spicy rye components after successive years and rackings. At the same time, the younger ones exhibited all the bold and spicy components they were seeking, but the palate was often lacking in the sweet, rich texture that aging brings. The solution was to blend and bottle a combination of old and young whiskies, thereby capitalizing on the desirable characteristics of each in the finished product. Bottled at 100 proof, the Smoke Wagon Small Batch Bourbon carries all the depth, body, and richness of an aged spirit the with robust spice of rye and #4 char oak. 2021 and 2019 San Francisco Spirits Competition Gold Medal Winner.
