Smoke Wagon Small Batch Bourbon is a straight bourbon produced by Nevada H&C Distilling Co., founded in 2012 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The whiskey is sourced from MGP in Indiana and aged in the Nevada desert. It has a proof of 100 and a mashbill of 60% corn, 36% rye and 4% malted barley. This bourbon combines older age stock with younger barrels and is non-chill filtered. The suggested retail price is $45 for a 750 ml bottle.
Immediate citrus and cherry punch that spreads out, leaving a nice caramel mouth coating. Spice on the second sip, reminiscent of some kind of lemon meringue dessert with a bit of bite to it.
This whiskey is all style and very little substance, making it an ideal pairing for plastic castles, slot machines, and Australia’s Thunder from Down Under.
