Now on to the bourbon!
Litchfield Distillery Double Barreled Bourbon Whiskey Aged 8 Years- $65.99
This month’s Bourbon Explorer selection is an 88-proof whiskey from Connecticut’s Litchfield Distillery.
The bottle has some nice details: the top is dipped in wax and the label is hand numbered.
From the distillery’s website: “Our 8-year bourbon is bottle proofed to 88 and then re-barreled to invite a delicious bouquet of caramels, vanillas, fruits and spices that linger and evolve on the palette.”
The first thing that struck me about this bourbon is the aroma. It smells absolutely incredible— rich, sweet, and a little like caramelized sugar. The taste is wonderful, too. I tend to use bourbon primarily in cocktails, but I like this one enough that I could definitely drink it as a sipper.
Verdict: I’m very happy with this month’s PourMore Bourbon Explorer pick! This bottle is definitely a winner! The value of this month’s pick doesn’t meet the cost of the subscription, but it’s important to note that the value does fluctuate from month to month. In the last few months, I’ve seen bottles range in value from $42.99 all the way up to $99.99.
