Not long after Christmas, three delivery trucks pulled into K&L, each driven by a mystical wiseman bearing a special present for our customers. The second gift from this year's Magi was not frankincense, but rather a refined and sweet-spiced, cask strength Bourbon from Four Roses. This second barrel is completely different from its two bretheren, with a nuanced palate of fresh pencil shavings, soft vanilla and cinnamon. The high proof is completely in balance with the delicate flavors of the whiskey, and the Bourbon drinks beautifully even at cask strength. Formula OBSF uses a 60% corn mashbill with a higher percentage of rye, which adds that bit of peppery herbaceousness on the finish. This is a lovely sipper, but also a cocktail contender. Your sweet vermouths will be lining up, begging to get a piece of this whiskey. (David Driscoll, K&L Spirits buyer)
