"Hennigan's"
Released October, 2022
Age: 5 years, 6 months
Type: Straight bourbon
Proof: 117
Mash bill: 51% Corn/ 45% Wheat/ 4% Malted Barley
Finish: 6 months with recharred oak staves, followed by 2 months in the barrel that previously held "The Babka" and "The Rye" prior to that.
Distillery: MGP
Bottler: J&B
Tasting notes:
Nose: Pink Mr Sketch marker, etrog and cinnamon
Palate: Bazooka (with the Hebrew cartoons, obviously), cherry candy, cinnamon start it off but then it gets really interesting. There are two mid-palate notes -- one is wintergreen and it's gentle but the larger one is green apple candy, like maybe a Jolly Rancher. The mid-palate lasts only long enough to leave an impression before it cruises towards notes of maple, burnt sugar and anise in the back.
Finish: Long. Persistent. Kinda like Saturday shul if you hit the bottle too hard on a Friday night.
