Orphan Barrel - Rhetoric 24 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Ten steps ahead in a dance of discourse, Rhetoric Whiskeys candy-coats and compels with equal amounts of art. Proper, eloquent, and poetic, this collection of Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey speaks a language to which you could listen for hours.
An ever-changing specimen, Rhetoric is an experiment in how barrel maturation imparts a lasting impression year after year. Each new year results in an older and wiser limited release from remaining maturing stock. A conversation piece if there ever was one.
Our fifth release, this 24-year-old bourbon begins with an aroma of brown sugar, vanilla, chocolate, and toasted oak. A fruity taste with a hint of allspice gives way to a warming finish accented with nutmeg and caramel.
Each sip starts with a smoky, leathery nose that translates into vanilla oak, toasted rye, and dried fruits, and concludes with a long, full finish of cherry blossom and bitter chocolate.
