Sweetens Cove Tennessee 2021 Release is a blend of straight Tennessee bourbons aged 16, 6 and 4 years. It retails for $229.99. The brand, launched in 2020 by Peyton Manning, Eli Manning and Andy Roddick, is blended by Marianne Eaves, Kentucky's first female master distiller.
For seasoned whiskey drinkers, this immediately and recognizably reads as Tennessee whiskey, but with a mouthfeel and flavor profile that soars above many other readily available bottles.
The palate is warmer than the original with a generous heat that builds into the finish. It remains just as approachable, however, with the same surprisingly fruity palate.
