The Isaac Bowman Pioneer Spirit whiskey is aged in new, charred American white oak barrels, with no age statement specifically available, though it reportedly falls in the 4.5-5.5 year range.

The port barrels used for finishing come from Virginia and Portugal, made using American and French Limousin oak, and the whiskey ages in these from 3-6 months before blending to create the bourbon to be bottled. It’s bottled at 92 proof.

Appearance: 

Glossy with a port wine-kissed mahogany.

Nose: 

The port is noticeable from the get-go, as is stewed fruit earthy and sweet. Another layer of lighter sweetness brought to mind gummy bears, followed by subtle spice.

Palate: 

Layered and complex. Stone fruit baked in a dough (like traditional hamantaschen or Pueblo prune pies). The sweetness isn’t cloying, but rather playful and rich and it dissipates nicely. A bit of oak and warm char balances the finish.
