NV Woodinville Whiskey Co. Straight Bourbon Whiskey 45%

med body - easy drinking - good for $50 price
The nose is light but expressive. Scents of peaches, canned cocktail fruit, fresh crushed green grapes, and light brown sugar are immediately noticeable. Inhaling deeper presents notes of hints of corn, oak, and a thin layer of caramel. For a 90 proof bourbon, the nose brings a nice amount of flavorful scents. It may not have the depth that a higher aged bourbon might deliver, or the intensity of a higher proof bourbon, but what it does deliver, it delivers extremely well.
The end result is a bourbon that delivers a flavor profile that leans on the highly drinkable side. While its 90 proof holds back some of its potential, that shouldn’t cause you to write it off, because even at 90 proof, the bourbon is full of flavor. It may not be the best bourbon in a given lineup, but what it will be is a bourbon that showcases what more craft distilleries should strive to be.

smooth, still young - needs time in a decanter - at least an hour - tennis are appropriate and soften nicely. Not Big, but rather medium with balance.
The body is medium/full. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes long.
