TASTING NOTES

Little Book Chapter 5 “The Invitation” is composed of four straight whiskies that have a vast range of ages, distillation styles and resulting flavor profiles.

Blend Components:

The 2-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon comes off the still and goes into the barrel at a lower proof, delivering a whiskey that’s complex and balanced. With an almost creamy mouthfeel sweet grain flavor presents itself and creates a complexity you don’t often see at such a young age.

The 3-Year-Old Malted 100% Rye Whiskey brings in peppery notes to the final blend common to Rye Whiskey but the complexity of toasted grain/cereal with a hint of nuttiness.

The 5-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon brings in hints of vanilla, with complexity of corn sweetness on the nose and a smooth finish that help to balance the flavors from the younger whiskies and the 15-year-old bourbon.

The 15-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbon brings a heavier barrel flavor from spending an extended amount of Straight time in the rackhouse and really showcases those unique flavor characteristics that only Bourbon time can achieve. This liquid specifically adds a lot of complexity in the final blend.

Proof: 116.8

Tasting Notes: Little Book Chapter 5: “The Invitation” features flavors of caramel and toasted bread, with brown sugar undertones and a touch of sweetness.
