Brothers of the Leaf Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Toasted French Oak Casks 750mL

Brothers of the Leaf Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a small-batch Kentucky bourbon finished in toasted French oak casks by Kelvin Cooperage. Built on a mash bill of 75% corn, 21% rye, and 4% malted barley, it's aged first in new charred American oak, then given a secondary maturation in toasted French oak that layers in dark chocolate, roasted coffee, and exotic spice.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Deep amber with ruby undertones
• Nose: Espresso beans, toasted oak, and dark chocolate truffle, with hints of burnt orange peel and dried fig
• Palate: Rich and full-bodied — corn sweetness, rye's peppery lift, and layers of mocha, nutmeg, and charred vanilla
• Finish: Long and warming, with lingering dark cocoa and roasted almond
