“I taste every single barrel, and sometimes, I come across one that’s almost completely empty,” said Todd in a prepared statement. “The liquid just evaporates in the Texas heat—’angel’s share.’ But the small amount of bourbon that remains inside those barrels is pure gold."

Deceptive aroma of firewater, firewood, and freshly cut cedar. Clears sinuses instantly. Unexpected sweet flavors of caramel candy, toasted figs, scorched molasses, toasted honey, plum jelly, creamy coffee liqueur, sugary cinnamon apple pie sugar, and crust. Gum puckering, tongue-numbing oily goodness. King-like uber-bourbon.”
