Named “World Whisky of the Year” in Jim Murray’s Whisky Bible 2020
Bourbon insiders have long acknowledged that full proof bourbon has a distinguished and rich flavor. This bourbon underwent a distinct filtering process,forgoing the typical chill filtration and passing only through a plate and frame filter. This allowed the bourbon to maintain a robust proof for bottling, as well as a full, rich and bold flavor. Bottled at its original 125 barrel entry proof, just as it was years ago when the barrels were first filled, 1792 Full Proof Bourbon is exceptionally distinct.
Tasting Notes:
Strong and full of flavor, this bold bourbon boasts an incredible deep and smoky taste, superbly balanced with sweet vanilla and notes of caramel.
“Weve had ourreservationregarding 1792 Full Proof in the past. Past versions encapsulated and arguably doubled down on the bourbons classic and unexciting nature – even to its detriment. Yet, no bourbon is ever set in stone, and the latest batch of 1792 Full Proof is a perfect example of this. While still classic at heart, the palate’s fullness of flavor, a thicker mouthfeel, and an overall renewed spirit have transformed the bourbon into an almost new bourbon altogether, and one – especially regarding 1792 bourbon – thats exciting to drink. Its a remarkable transformation and is exactly why you should never count a bourbon out and be willing to revisit bourbons over time.” – Eric Hasman, Breaking Bourbon (Well Above Average)
“No age statement on the label, but aged for 8 1/2 years. Bottled at the same ABV as its entry proof into the barrel. Lush and mouth-coating. A pleasingly sweet bourbon, with caramel, nougat, and chewy toffee, mixed with ripe orchard fruit, golden raisin, and creamy vanilla. Soothing finish. A wonderful way to end a meal. (With a cigar, perhaps?) This is a beautiful bourbon and a great value given its quality, ABV, and price.” – John Hansell, Whisky Advocate (92 Points)
“Not without its flaws, this “full proof” bourbon packs enough flavor into an approachably shippable bourbon at a great price point to be an excellent purchase for those who land a bottle.” – Bill, Modern Thirst (91 Points)
