One of Jefferson's latest releases from their experimental series sees their bourbon finished for 15 months in Rum Casks - in this case, the award winning Gosling’s Family Reserve.

Other reviews... What happens when 8 year old bourbon rests in a bourbon barrel-turned-rum barrel for 14 months? This is it. Muted caramel, vanilla, and spice meet salt, dried fruit, and almond extract, with a short cereal grain finish. An open mind will find this interesting. But for the traditionalist, this isn’t bourbon. I applaud the rum cask use, but this barrel appears not to be the perfect marriage for my glass.
