If you’re a fan of cask strength bourbons, you’re probably already aware of A. Smith Bowman’s Cask Strength Bourbon. But did you know the popular Virginia-based distillery is set to announce the fourth iteration of this popular bourbon series?
A. Smith Bowman’s Cask Strength Bourbon
This cask-strength bourbon is a blend of some of the best barrels at A. Smith Bowman’s disposal. Each barrel is hand-selected by A. Smith Bowman’s Distiller David Bock and matured for at least ten years.
The result is a non-chill-filtered, 139.7-proof whiskey that the brand says begins with a nose of leather, plums, and apple. The palate is a mix of raspberry chocolate, stone fruits, and cinnamon candy. The finish is warming and lingering and ends with a hint of apple.
“What our distillation team is trying to showcase with the Cask Strength series is an unvarnished truth of quality bourbon in its natural form,” Bock said in a press release.
There are no finishes with Cask Strength, meaning we must be meticulous when selecting barrels and blending the liquid. Each Cask Strength release is a unique sipping experience with its own special flavor profile, and this fourth release is an excellent addition to the series!”
