Tasting Notes

A true benchmark for bourbon whiskeys, Old Number 8 offers an enticing aroma that blends sweet caramel and vanilla notes with a toasty, spicy undertone reminiscent of freshly baked pastries. The sip unveils a creamy and decadent palate, where flavors of rich custard and buttery toffee apples intermingle with hints of biscuity goodness. As the flavors linger, a warm embrace of cinnamon, chocolate, and tangerine zest lingers on the finish, leaving a lasting impression. This bourbon is a true crowd-pleaser, equally enjoyable on its own or as the star ingredient in classic cocktails, showcasing its versatility and exceptional quality that sets the bar high for other distilleries to match.
