Case Study: 02 | 1948 - The Bourbon Whiskey Evolution. This is the second chapter in Frank August's 'Case Study' program, a journey to redefine bourbon's identity. It's an exploration of unique finishing and blending techniques, resulting in experimental bourbon expressions like no other.
The Rare Brandy Journey: 10 brandy casks filled in 1992 with Pedro Ximenez, aged for 30 years. From our hands to Kentucky barrels, we infused them with Frank August Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, patiently tasted to perfection.
A Visual Delight: Deep auburn hue with captivating, viscous legs on the glass.
Aromatic Prelude: A nose of baked peaches and dark chocolate, evolving into allspice and oak notes.
Palate Harmony: Sweet with subtle spice, balancing fruit, spice, and brown sugar, with a rich, warming viscosity. The brandy influence is present but not overpowering.
Finale Flourish: A bright, medium finish that lingers just right at 101.0 proof, delivering warmth and exquisite balance.
