Deadwood - "Tumblin Dice 4 Year Old" Straight Bourbon Whiskey Blue Label (750ml)

Matured for a solid four years in fresh, charred American Oak barrels, this whiskey boasts a deep, amber hue that exudes richness. Crafted in limited quantities, it is distilled by MGP in Lawrenceburg, Indiana, and bottled in Bardstown, Kentucky. Whiskey enthusiasts who appreciate bottled-in-bond varieties will love its 100 proof, packing a punch at 50% ABV.

When poured into a glass, this whiskey presents a pleasing, light honey shade. The aromas of vanilla, ripe banana, caramel, and toasted coconut take center stage, creating an inviting bouquet. As a fine sipping whiskey, it truly shines with its neat presentation, emphasizing its sweet nuances. On the palate, a distinct and instantly recognizable rye dryness emerges, gradually giving way to comforting, warm apple pie spices. This bourbon strikes a perfect balance, settling gently on the mid-palate with a smooth viscosity and a lively kick driven by its proof. Just for kicks, I decided to add a few drops of water and noticed a slight sweetening of the aroma, accentuating the vanilla and brûlée notes while softening the cereal finish.
