The Whiskey:
Jeffersons Reserve is a masterclass in the power of blending. This expression is a marriage of only eight to 12 barrels from three different bourbons which are, for the most part, very old. How old you ask? There are 20-year-old barrels in the mix.

Tasting Notes:
The spice comes through with a slight nod to eggnog (especially nutmeg) with a rounded sense of fresh honey on the nose. The taste holds onto the spice but starts leaning towards a cinnamon bark while butter toffee adds a nice sweetness and vanilla almost hides in the background. The spice amps up to a tobacco chewiness as the sip slowly fades out, leaving you with a mouth coated in silk.

The Neat Experience:
The idea behind the blend is to create the ultimate sippable whiskey. And they hit it out of the park. This is the sort of dram where youre sipping and nosing and you completely forget to add water.
