Bowsaw Small Batch 4 Year Old Kentucky Corn Whiskey (700ml)
It's unusual to find Corn whiskeys in Australia. In fact, up until about a decade ago, Heaven Hill were the sole remaining producer of the style in the USA. The forerunner and kissing cousin to Bourbon, American Straight Corn Whiskey is defined as having a recipe or mash bill with a minimum of 81% corn, the rest being malted barley and rye. Bowsaw's expression is part of their 'limited edition' range, so it's not intended as an ongoing release. Distilled and matured in Owensboro and Louisville, Kentucky and made from 91% Corn, 5% barley and 4% rye, expect a rich corn character and a sweet robust flavour, complemented by hints of rye spice and mellow barley. Like Bowsaw's Bourbon, this also comes beautifully presented in an 'old style' bottle with embossed glass letters decorated by hand ensuring every one is unique - in fact, they look so good you might just buy this for the bottle alone! 43% Alc./Vol.
