    2024/11/21
    Bottle Presentation Welcome back to DadDimes on the Rocks, where we sip, savor, and share our thoughts on the best (and sometimes the unexpected) whiskies. Today, we’re diving into something a bit unconventional: Broken Barrel Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. Known for its innovative approach of using barrel staves to influence flavor, Broken Barrel is carving a unique path in the bourbon world. Let’s see what their Small Batch expression has to offer. Bottle Presentation Broken Barrel Small Batch Bourbon comes in a striking bottle with a bold, contemporary design. The clear glass showcases the warm amber hue of the bourbon, while the label features detailed notes about the unique stave blend used in crafting the whiskey. The aesthetic is modern and eye-catching, hinting at the creative process behind the spirit. The Stave Profile The signature feature of Broken Barrel bourbons is their use of oak bill staves—additional pieces of wood that are added during the aging process to impart specific flavors. For the Small Batch expression, the stave profile typically includes: 40% Ex-Bourbon Cask Staves for traditional caramel and vanilla notes.40% New French Oak Staves for spice and complexity.20% Sherry Cask Staves for a hint of dark fruit and richness. This unique approach sets Broken Barrel apart, offering flavors that go beyond what traditional barrel aging achieves. Taste On the nose, Broken Barrel Small Batch offers an enticing mix of sweet and spicy aromas. Notes of caramel, honey, and vanilla are upfront, followed by subtle hints of toasted oak, dried fruit, and baking spices. The sherry cask influence brings a faint touch of raisin or fig, adding intrigue. Taking a sip, the first thing you notice is the layered complexity. The initial sweetness of caramel and butterscotch transitions into spicier tones of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. The mid-palate reveals rich oak flavors, complemented by a subtle fruity undertone, likely from the sherry staves. There’s also a touch of nuttiness, adding depth to the profile. The mouthfeel is medium-bodied, with a pleasant warmth that’s not overpowering. The finish is medium to long, with lingering spice, oak, and a hint of dark chocolate. It’s well-balanced and leaves you wanting another sip. Overall Impression Broken Barrel Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a testament to innovation in the bourbon industry. The use of stave profiles adds a creative twist, resulting in a complex and enjoyable whiskey. It’s bold yet approachable, making it a great choice for both bourbon newcomers and seasoned enthusiasts who want to try something different. This bourbon shines when sipped neat or with a splash of water to open up the flavors. Its unique profile also makes it a standout in an Old Fashioned or Manhattan, adding a new dimension to classic cocktails. Conclusion In summary, Broken Barrel Small Batch Bourbon delivers a unique and flavorful experience. The oak bill concept sets it apart, and the balance of sweet, spicy, and oaky notes makes it a compelling pour. Whether you’re looking for a conversation piece or simply a delicious bourbon to enjoy, this one’s worth a try. That’s our review of Broken Barrel Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey. As always, drink responsibly and savor every sip. Cheers!

Created by MMA superstar Conor McGregor, this whiskey has generated a lot of buzz since its launch. Let’s see if it lives up to the hype. Bottle Presentation Proper No. 12 comes in a sleek, dark green bottle that feels solid and well-crafted. The label features an Irish lion emblem, and the overall look conveys a modern yet classic Irish whiskey vibe. It’s a simple but attractive bottle that’s easy to spot on the shelf, with "Distilled, Matured & Bottled in Ireland" proudly displayed. Taste On the nose, Proper No. 12 is approachable and light, with immediate notes of vanilla, honey, and hints of green apple.

Taking a sip, you’ll notice that this whiskey is smooth and easy to drink, characteristic of Irish blends. The flavor profile begins with sweet notes of vanilla and caramel, followed by subtle hints of spice and oak from the barrels.
