Black Button Pre-Prohibition Style Straight Bourbon

Tasting Notes

Black Button's Pre-Prohibition Straight Bourbon is a rustic trip back in time, bottled at 92 proof after at least four years. This "Rochester Style" spirit, crafted from a mash of corn, rye, and malted barley, skips the fancy sipping and dives into robust flavors. Expect a grain-forward palate hinting at apple tea and rye spice, balanced by a surprisingly chewy texture. The finish is brisk and slightly dry, leaving a Granny Smith apple note. It's a simple, honest pour that recalls early Rochester bourbon recipes, best enjoyed in a rocks glass, celebrating the spirit's historical roots rather than chasing elegance.
