Taconic Distillery Description
Our limited edition bourbon comes from teaming up with Catskill Mountain Sugarhouse. We send used bourbon barrels to the sugarhouse, who fills them with grade A organic maple syrup. After a few months of aging, the contents are then bottled as our Bourbon Barrel Maple Syrup.
Then we fill those same maple syrup-laced barrels with bourbon. After a few months of soaking up the sweetness, we have a batch of Double Barrel Bourbon Maple Whiskey. The initial encounter has a sweetness lingering pleasantly on the lips with the earthiness of the barrel wood balancing out the sweetness nicely. Because of the dominate maple, there is not the customary bourbon essences of vanilla and caramel. This finish is peppery with a slight afterburn at the back of the throat that lets you know that this is still 90 proof bourbon.
