It is redundant to keep repeating the same tasting notes

and although the 14% registered here is still quite high

Sip with a cube of ice and maybe a curl of orange peel

elegant nose that begins with ripe white fruit and moves towards the notes that come from ageing: baked goods

A. Smith Bowman Distillery 'John J. Bowman' Pioneer Spirit Single Barrel Virginia Straight Bourbon Whiskey (750ml) Yamada Nishiki Rice cocktail connoisseurThough it needs a little coaxing, this small batch Bourbon is a fitting tribute to the four Bowman brothers, Virginia militia officers in the Revolutionary War. Give it some time and a splash of ice water, and the aromas and flavors open up. Look for sweet notes of almond, cocoa and caramel, plus the clove and nutmeg notes that build on the finish.
