Yellowstone Special Finishes Collection: Rum Cask is a Bourbon Whiskey from the Yellowstone Bourbon Whiskey Collection brand crafted in USA.
Yellowstone Special Finishes Collection: Rum Cask offers bourbon lovers a unique twist on the classic American whiskey, with its time spent in Caribbean rum barrels imparting subtle notes of tropical fruit and warm spices. Interestingly, this limited edition release pays homage to the distillery's pre-Prohibition roots, as Yellowstone bourbon was originally created in the 1880s by J.B. Dant, whose family has been making whiskey for seven generations - longer than any other family in Kentucky.
Yellowstone Special Finishes Collection: Rum Cask offers bourbon lovers a delightful twist on the classic Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey. This limited-edition release spends 3-4 months finishing in Caribbean rum casks, imparting subtle tropical fruit notes and a touch of sweetness that complements the bourbon's traditional vanilla and caramel flavors without overpowering its essence.
Yellowstone Special Finishes Collection: Rum Cask shines when sipped neat or with a single large ice cube, allowing its complex flavors to unfold slowly on the palate. This bourbon also excels in spirit-forward cocktails that showcase its unique rum-influenced profile, making it a perfect choice for cozy autumn evenings or paired with rich, caramelized desserts that complement its sweet, tropical notes.
Nose: Rich caramel and vanilla notes dominate, complemented by hints of tropical fruit like pineapple and banana. A subtle oakiness lingers in the background, along with a touch of warm spice reminiscent of cinnamon and nutmeg.
Palate: Sweet and full-bodied, with prominent flavors of toffee, brown sugar, and dark fruit. The rum cask influence shines through with notes of molasses and a slight rum-raisin quality. A gentle warmth carries hints of baking spices and toasted oak.
Finish: Medium to long, with a pleasant interplay of sweetness and spice. Lingering notes of caramel and vanilla fade into a subtle dryness, accompanied by a warm, peppery tingle. The rum cask aging leaves a final impression of dark sugar and dried tropical fruits.
Yellowstone Special Finishes Collection: Rum Cask starts with a blend of 4 and 7-year-old straight bourbons, which are then finished for up to 7 months in Caribbean rum casks. This unique finishing process imparts subtle tropical fruit notes and a touch of sweetness to the bourbon, creating a harmonious marriage between the rich, spicy character of Kentucky whiskey and the exotic allure of Caribbean rum.
