Notes on 1792 Full Proof...

The full proof, cask strength version of the 1792 bourbon produced at the Barton 1792 distillery in Kentucky has been one of the most sought-after Bourbons of the last few years. Not only awarded World's Best Whisky in Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2020, the quality was previously affirmed at the World Whisky Awards in 2018 where it was voted World's Best Bourbon.

Scoring an impressive 97.5 points out of 100, Murray applauded the 62.5% ABV expression for being “melodious, mysterious and slightly exotic” with a nose of “near-perfect proportions” and an “unfaltering” finish. He added “For the 1792 Distillery to win World Whisky of the Year is extraordinary because when I first went there some 25 years ago, the then-owners had no interest in high-end whiskey... The oldest they produced was a six-year-old which I thought was one of the most complex on the market but still undercooked. I implored them then to bring out something much older. It is wonderful that my gut instinct of 25 years ago has been vindicated under the ownership of Sazerac, who have turned a potentially great distillery into something truly magnificent."

The whiskey comes non-chill filtered - instead filtered through the lesser plate and frame method to keep the roundness of the spirit.

Notes on Jameson 18 Year Old...

Other reviews... Unmistakably Jameson on the nose, this is a belter of a whiskey: honey, apple, toasted coconut, creamy vanilla, and sublime pot still spiciness. This offers sweet toffee and caramel, bursting with spices, just a hint of sherry, Brazil nut, vanilla, creamy oak, and a caressing mouthfeel. A triumph that exemplifies the glories of pot still blending, and its sherry influence makes for a rich ending. 92 points - whiskyadvocate.com, reviewed by: Jonny McCormick (Summer 2018) 40% Alc./Vol.
