Blue Note Honey Bourbon begins by finishing straight bourbon whiskey in American oak barrels repurposed to produce honey. The bourbon is then returned to the honey-infused casks for additional aging. Crafted in Memphis, Tennessee, it is aged a minimum of three years from a mash bill of 70% corn, 21% rye, and 9% malted barley, and bottled at 115.7 proof, unfiltered. According to the brand, the bourbon offers aromas of vanilla, cedar, and nut, flavors of leather, pear, cedar, wildflower, and honey, and a gentle, warm finish with lingering notes of wildflower and honey.

  • Baking spice evolves rapidly on the finish — with layers of cinnamon, candied fruit, and a healthy punch of satsuma orange. Soothing, comforting finish. It’s literally impossible to believe this is a cask-strength release at 115.7 proof. Say no to water here, or we’ll slap it out of your hand. A
