Jimmy Red Straight Bourbon Whiskey is part of our Bourbon Whiskey collection. It comes from Jimmy Red Bourbon and is crafted in the United States.
Jimmy Red Straight Bourbon Whiskey is crafted from a rare, nearly-extinct corn variety that was saved by dedicated farmers and researchers. This unique bourbon not only preserves an heirloom grain, but it also packs a flavor punch with natural notes of cinnamon and graham cracker - no additives needed to achieve its distinctive taste profile.
Jimmy Red Straight Bourbon Whiskey stands out for its use of 100% Jimmy Red corn, a rare magenta-hued landrace grain that was nearly extinct before High Wire Distilling helped revive it. This unique bourbon offers rich flavors of graham, cinnamon, and maple with a creamy mouthfeel, making it a must-try for whiskey enthusiasts seeking a truly distinctive and flavorful experience.
Jimmy Red Straight Bourbon Whiskey shines when sipped neat or with a single ice cube, allowing its unique corn-driven flavors to take center stage. This robust bourbon also stands up beautifully in spirit-forward cocktails and pairs wonderfully with hearty, smoky dishes like barbecue or grilled meats, making it an ideal choice for warm summer evenings or cozy fall gatherings around the fire pit.
Nose: Sweet corn and caramel lead, followed by hints of cinnamon and nutmeg. A subtle oakiness lingers in the background, along with a touch of vanilla.
Palate: Rich and full-bodied. Graham cracker sweetness mixes with warm cinnamon spice. Maple syrup and buttered cornbread flavors develop, balanced by a gentle oak char. The texture is notably creamy and smooth.
Finish: Long and warming. The cinnamon spice builds, complemented by lingering notes of toasted corn and caramel. A subtle nuttiness emerges, reminiscent of pecans. The finish tapers off with a pleasant, dry oakiness.
Jimmy Red Straight Bourbon Whiskey is crafted using 100% Jimmy Red corn, a rare heirloom variety that was nearly lost to history. The corn is mashed, fermented, and distilled before being aged for at least two years in new, charred American oak barrels, resulting in a bourbon with unique flavor characteristics derived from this singular grain source.
