| Description: | History,. Old Route 8 is the inaugural bourbon from Augusta distillery. Abv and nuance may vary from single barrel to single barrel, but this vibrant and sessionable bottling will always express the peak character expected from a bourbon aged a full eight years. Single barrel Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey sourced and bottled by Augusta Distillery in Augusta, Kentucky Distilled at an undisclosed Kentucky distillery Mash bill of 78% corn, 13% rye, 9% malted barley Aged 8 years in new charred American oak. Gold medalist at the 2024 San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Non-chill filtered; bottled at cask strength (abv will vary barrel to barrel). Tasting Notes,. Nose: Graham crackers, vanilla, and salted caramel greet you as you approach, suggesting that this is a true Kentucky Bourbon. These early notes give way to undertones of cedar and oak foreshadowing that this bourbon has come of age. Palate: The hints of favor and complexity created upon nosing are reinforced on the palate. Flavors of brown sugar, vanilla, and a dash of oak are balanced and revealed in smooth, cascading layers that only time and great liquid can deliver. Finish: Long, smooth and lingering, the finish extends the joy of this pour, delivering a classic Kentucky hug. Oak, baking spices, with a touch of sweetness are reminders that this is a traditional straight Kentucky bourbon that deserves further exploration. |
