OBSK is a favourite of Bourbon lovers who like intense, spicy flavours. It’s smooth and mellow like all our Bourbons, but the mashbill and yeast strain combine to create our spiciest recipe. Here’s the OBSK flavour profile as described by our Master Distiller, Brent Elliott:
The nose of OBSK is dominated by aromas of rich, clean rye and hints of lighter baking spices. The rich rye tones also dominate the palate at first sip, before seamlessly transitioning into flavours of allspice, nutmeg and cinnamon. As this recipe ages, the robust, bright flavours mellow into deeper and richer tones, as the oak, caramel and vanilla flavours increase. However, despite the spice up front and mid palate, OBSK has a generally soft and very mellow finish.
