Introducing the Doc Holliday 15-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, a masterpiece crafted for true connoisseurs. This exclusive release delivers an intense and robust experience, showcasing the unfiltered essence of our bourbon.
Long before John Henry Holliday became known throughout these United States as "Doc" – and also "the slickest gunslinger in the west" – he was a darn good… dentist. Classically educated in Humanities and Mathematics, by 20, he graduated with a Doctor of Dental Surgery (hence the nickname) from one of the top schools in the nation.
Today, we know him as the symbol of loyalty in the Wild West and the hero of the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral. Despite all the perils of the Frontier, he remained an even-tempered, well-mannered Southern gentleman until his untimely end at 36 years of age.
We salute Doc Holliday as the epitome of a true friend and a loyal companion.
Tasting Notes:
• Nose: The aroma is warm and inviting, with a delightful combination of caramelized apples and sweet maraschino cherry, interwoven with a subtle spice from clove and nutmeg. The scent of roasted pecans adds a nutty richness, grounding the sweeter notes with a savory depth.
• Palate: Upon tasting, the bourbon delivers a smooth, velvety mouthfeel with layers of caramelized apples and maraschino cherry up front, followed by a gentle, warming spice of clove and nutmeg. The deep vanilla sweetness is balanced by a savory nuttiness from the roasted pecans, offering a toasted, almost buttery flavor that lingers.
• Finish: The finish is long and refined, with the warmth of clove and nutmeg gradually fading, leaving behind a satisfying caramelized apple sweetness and a hint of roasted pecans that creates a satisfying, rich conclusion.
Overall, this 15-year-old bourbon is well-aged, allowing the complexity of flavors to develop and harmonize into a smooth, balanced experience with both sweet and savory characteristics.
