Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey is distilled by Journeyman Distillery in Three Oaks, Michigan. The whiskey is bottled at 90 proof and retails for $45. It is made from a mashbill of 70% corn, 25% wheat and 5% rye. The whiskey is produced in small batches through a single distillation.
The finish was rather disappointing, but not a total surprise given the rather thin feel of the bourbon. The product presentation is the star of the show with the bottle and backstory being the most compelling parts of this particular release.
The mouth-coating lends slightly towards the novice bourbon drinker. Slightly gingery in the mid-palate this whiskey finishes quickly in both the mouth and the glass.
This is a fairly complex whiskey with unique notes of chocolate and peanut butter. It is also unique with the smoothness in which it travels down the palate.
