Bourbon Whiskey, Small Batch 'Cigar - Amburana Cask'
Bourbon Whiskey, Small Batch 'Cigar - Amburana Cask'
- Amburana-cask finished bourbon produced by Starlight Distillery in Starlight, Indiana
- Blend of two mash bills: a three-grain mash bill of 60% corn, 20% rye, and 20% malted barley and a four-grain mash bill of 51% corn, 20% rye, 20% malted barley, and 9% wheat
- Produced using estate-grown non-GMO corn, rye, and wheat; malted barley is locally sourced
- Closed-top, sweet mash fermented in stainless steel for seven days
- Twice distilled in a Vendome brass and copper pot still
- Primarily aged in new American oak and finished for 6 months in new Amburana barrels from Brazil; aged a minimum 5 years in total
- A provocative nose displays toasted cinnamon, rose petals, orange peel, and clove; these notes are amplified on the palate and complemented with a throughline of cedar, finishing with spicy, candied cinnamon
- Non-chill filtered; bottled at a cask strength of 51.5% ABV
Starlight’s small batches of Amburana-finished bourbon have been in high demand since long before the current peak of excitement over whiskies finished in this limited hardwood, native to Brazil. The wood’s characteristic notes of fragrant and warming baking spice add beguiling dimension to Starlight’s signature bourbon, while the cask-strength bottling balances a bevy of big flavor. This limited edition is rarely available outside of private cask selections; don’t miss an opportunity to experience this heady brew.
