Buffalo Trace White Dog Mash #1
Description
Buffalo Trace White Dog Mash #1 offers a unique opportunity to experience the raw essence of whiskey before it undergoes the aging process. This unaged spirit is a homage to the rich distilling heritage and the pioneers of America’s past. Despite its robust 125 proof, it manages to maintain an unexpected smoothness, with aromatic notes of corn adding to its charm.
The tasting journey unfolds with a richness and smoothness that are truly captivating. Flavors reminiscent of bread dough, popcorn, toasted grains intersperse with fruity hints of apples and tropical fruits. This symphony of flavors creates a sensory experience that is both diverse and harmonious.
The texture of the spirit is oily, contributing to its syrupy characteristic. The palate is treated to sweet corn, fresh bread, a substantial hit of spice midway through, and a hint of barley. The finish is medium in length, leaving behind a warming heat and notes of salt and copper, making for a memorable end to the tasting journey.
