Wilderness Trail Family Reserve Cask Strength Barrel No 771289 DSP-KY-20005 Alexander 750ml

This is a single barrel of Wilderness Trail Family Reserve Cask Strength Bourbon, Barrel No. 771289, from the Danville, Kentucky distillery (DSP-KY-20005) founded in 2012 by Shane Baker and Dr. Pat Heist. The pair are known for a science-driven approach, including sweet mash fermentation rather than the more common sour mash, proprietary yeast and an infusion mashing process.

The high-rye mash bill goes into the barrel at a low 110 entry proof, and each Family Reserve barrel is bottled at cask strength, so proof varies from barrel to barrel. Reviewers of this line point to a grain-forward profile with toasty notes, orange peel and a touch of marshmallow sweetness.
