Tasting Notes and Technical Description:
Visual Appearance:
Upon decanting, the Longbranch Bourbon reveals an appealing, deep amber color with a golden tinge—evoking shades of sunlit southern fields. The legs, running down the glass sides at a leisurely pace, indicate its well-balanced, robust character.
Nose (Aroma):
A multifaceted nose reveals an intricate tapestry of scents. Vanilla bean and caramel give way to lighter, airy notes of hay and sweet corn. Mesquite smoke, the signature aspect of the Longbranch filtration process, leaves an unmistakable but tactful imprint.
Palate:
A gentle sip introduces an array of complex flavors. The palate experiences an immediate flourish of caramel and honey, accompanied by ripe orchard fruits like apple and pear. The mesquite influence subtly permeates the profile, bringing forth earthy and smoky tones that perfectly balance the sweetness. The rye component in the grain bill introduces a delightful spice, both piquant and invigorating.
Finish:
Long and warm, the finish celebrates the mesquite nuances, amplifying their impact without overshadowing the classic bourbon characters. The tail end leaves a delicate blend of toasted oak, vanilla, and a tinge of pepper, making for an elegant and lingering conclusion.
