OLD ELK - High Malt Bourbon
From the Distillery: The key to our bourbon is our high malted barley content in our mashbill. By investing in our bourbon and using four times more malted barley than traditional recipes, we’ve created a non-traditional bourbon that generates sweet and light components. Aged for five years, the malted barley combined with the spicy essence of clove from the rye, and the classic rich bourbon character from the corn amounts to a robust and smooth taste profile.
Mashbill: 51% corn, 34% malted barley, 15% rye
TASTING NOTES
Aroma: Sweet vanilla and caramel, clove spice, slight maple, and nutty almond
Taste: Maple syrup, almond, raw bran, chocolate, deep wood and coconut
Mouthfeel: Smooth and coating with a lasting flavor
