Frank August Single Barrel Bourbon (750 ml)

Description

Frank. The state of being open, honest and sincere. A philosophy we have built our brand upon. Bourbon is America’s native spirit, but as intrinsically steeped in the American experience as bourbon is, it has predominantly had one story; one of origin. Respectfully, we believe there is a more expansive story to tell, one that belongs to all of us because it will be told by all of us. Frank August exists to evolve the identity of bourbon by uniting authenticity with modernity. Taking the best of where we’ve been and projecting those ideals into where we have yet to go. So let the story of bourbon continue; as the story of Frank August begins.

Tasting Notes: 

Color:  A deep mahogany with full legs that glaze the glass.

Nose: Frank August’s Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon opens with some beautiful baking spices and notes of mild oak, before picking up a mix of sweet aromatics of vanilla and caramel.

Palate: The baking spices are more pronounced, with cinnamon coming forward initially, before rye spices begin to gradually introduce themselves, warmly coating your mouth. At a 123.0 – 125.0 proof cask strength, there’s an intensity that is exceptionally balanced by some of the vanilla and caramel notes you initially pick up on the nose.

Finish: A long and balanced finish that continues to develop between each taste.  As the cask strength begins to wane, you’ll continue to pick up baking spices and hints of black cherries, layered between subtle notes of oak and vanilla.
