Pinhook Collaboration Series "Edition No. 2" Bourbon
For the series’ second release, Pinhook has partnered with Garrett Oliver, brewmaster of Brooklyn Brewery and 2014 James Beard Award winner, to produce an artfully structured high-proof, high-rye bourbon - with proceeds funding 20 scholarships in brewing and distilling to people of color. Blended and proofed from 20 pinhooked barrels out of Still Austin.
Aged for 4 years in the Texas heat, which speeds aging and results in a whiskey with a maturity that far exceeds its time in the barrel. This results in a whiskey with maturity that far exceeds its years in the barrel. Tropical fruit, spice and chocolate on the nose gives way to deep gingerbread, caramel and dark cherry flavors on the palate, topped off with a surprising hint of licorice. A bourbon lover's dream.
