Heaven’s Door Bootleg Series Volume V 18 Year Old Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Heaven’s Door Bootleg Series Volume V 18 Year Old Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Heaven's Door Bootleg Series Volume V 18 Year Old Straight Bourbon Whiskey is the 2023 chapter of the brand's annual Bootleg Series: eighteen-year Tennessee bourbon finished in Spanish vermouth rouge casks, bottled at 114 proof in a 700 mL ceramic bottle painted with Bob Dylan's No Vacancies. Ken Pierce and Alex Moore chose those fortified-wine casks so dark fruit and cocktail botanicals would stand out on the palate instead of getting buried. This is a limited annual release. Pour it as an after-dinner dram.
The sip opens on dark fruit and allspice, then caramel, honey, and vanilla lead on the palate, with firm oak. Vermouth spice and a little tannin keep the sweetness in check, and the finish lingers on honey, baking spice, and a Manhattan-like dryness.
