About this bottle
Henry Mckenna’s Henry McKenna Sour Mash Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a bourbon from United States in our whiskey range. It is bottled at 40% ABV, in a 1 L bottle. Producer tasting notes — on the nose: Sweet maple syrup hints, a bit of alcohol astringency, corn, caramel, and oak. A very pleasant, inviting nose actually, different from but just as enjoyable as some much more expensive bourbons; on the palate: The flavor of this bourbon is very light and crisp - almost like a blended whiskey. A bit of the maple sweetness comes through and there's a decent amount of oaky taste with vanilla and caramel tones, but nothing too much going on flavor-wise; finish: Henry McKenna surprises before and after you drink it - the finish is just as nice as the initial aroma, even though the taste is nothing to write home about. It lingers with you for a while and has a dry, roasted nut character. The charred oak flavors hang around for a good while as well.
