Jos A. Magnus & Co. "Murray Hill Club" Straight Bourbon Whiskey (750ml)
SKU #1317153
Whisky Advocate
An aroma you can really chew on, this comes at you big and bold, its dried cherry, fig, and caramel flavors woven with pipe tobacco, licorice, and saddle leather. The jolt of sweetness and spice on the palate pour on and on. Water helps to temper the heat and release even more flavors, with currant, chocolate, and drying oak on the finish. Sourced Indiana bourbon finished in oloroso sherry, Pedro Ximenez, and Cognac casks. (JL, Fall 2018)
K&L Notes
Another ultra limited small batch blend from the excellent Jos A. Magnus & Co. in Washington, D.C.. Bottled at 103 proof, this bourbon blend is crafted, according to the distillery, "using the same techniques Joseph Magnus used to create this original pre-Prohibition spirit more than 100 years ago. Artfully marries 18 and 11-year-old bourbon with 9-year-old light whiskey to deliver notes of butterscotch, honey, toffee, autumnal baking spices, vanilla, and char, with a hint of black pepper that lingers through a softly spiced and toasted finish."
