Detailed Description
Straight Edge is a blend of 5, 7, and 8-year-old Bourbon from Kentucky and Tennessee. The Bourbon was finished in the Napa Valley where it was aged in seasoned wine barrels. The barrels imparted toasty vanilla and dried fruit notes while also allowing the Bourbon to soften and mellow.
Straight Edge Bourbon Whiskey Tasting Notes
Nose: Aromatically intriguing with brown sugar, maple, caramelized oak, exotic spices, orange peel and campfire.
Palate: The palate is velvety smooth, rich and packed with flavors of brown spice, honey and intense caramel.
Finish: The complexity is apparent and the finish is persistent, long lasting and focused.
Distillery Information
The Splinter Group was founded in 2013 by John Wilkinson of winemaker Bin to Bottle and Dave Phinney of Orin Swift Wines. They have since been joined by other experienced oenophiles (wine lovers) in the area, representing decades of experience. As non-distilling producers, they source their aged Whiskies from established producers across the midwest and southeastern United States and then blend them on site in northern California.
