In an interesting gambit, FOX partnered with Next Century Spirits to release a bourbon to accompany its new show, "Monarch," which stars Susan Sarandon. Bottled at 94 proof, this bourbon comes with no age statement and a finish in smoked barrels.

House Review
Nose:
Aggressively woody, full of cedar, smoke, citrus and pepper. Young on the nose with aggressive tannins.
Taste:
Bitter and oaky, young and grainy. This tastes every day of two years old, with a tinge of ash and barrel char.
Finish:
Short finish. It’s a touch hot for 47% ABV, and the finish is bombarded with char, young wood, wet paper pulp and a touch of pepper and woody bitterness.
Overall:
Overall, Truthteller 1839 points to a show best enjoyed rather than a whiskey poured and drank.
Score:
70
