Doc Swinson's Exploratory Cask Bossa Nova Brazilian Amburana Finish Bourbon

The Brazilian amburana wood employed in the maturation of Doc Swinson's Exploratory Cask Bossa Nova Brazilian Amburana Finish Bourbon is often referred to as the "whiskey unicorn". This rare wood imparts cinnamon spice and sweetness to the whiskey, creating a well-rounded profile reminiscent of fresh snicker-doodles and oven-baked cinnamon buns. The release of this "whiskey unicorn" is highly anticipated, as these barrels represent a deep dive into the exploration of flavor profiles that complement the bourbons.
