Jefferson's Reserve Old Rum Cask Finish Straight Bourbon is a unique expression from Jefferson's Bourbon, a distillery known for its innovative approach to bourbon making. This bourbon is a straight bourbon whiskey that undergoes a secondary maturation in old rum casks, adding a layer of complexity to its profile. The mash bill typically includes a high percentage of corn, complemented by rye and malted barley, which is characteristic of many bourbons. The aging process in rum casks imparts notes of tropical fruits, vanilla, and a hint of molasses, enhancing the traditional caramel and oak flavors of the bourbon. Bottled at an ABV of around 45%, this bourbon offers a rich and smooth drinking experience with a balanced finish. It originates from Kentucky, USA, a region renowned for its bourbon production.
