Belle Meade Reserve Bourbon Whiskey 108.3 Proof

Vanilla and caramel open the aroma of Belle Meade Reserve Bourbon Whiskey, giving the first impression a familiar sweetness. Dark corn syrup adds depth, while candied cherries and stone fruits bring a darker, fruit-led accent. At 108.3 proof (54.2% ABV), the flavors remain clear and pronounced rather than fading quickly.

Herbal rye and spice provide contrast to the sweeter notes, with oak adding a firm bourbon backbone. Dark chocolate closes the profile with a bittersweet edge. This is a robust bourbon that can be enjoyed in a small pour or served over ice when a softer presentation is preferred. The 750 mL size makes it a straightforward choice for the home bar, especially when a higher-proof bourbon with sweetness, fruit, spice, and oak is wanted.
