The David Nicholson Reserve Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a powerful yet balanced premium bourbon from Bardstown, Kentucky, produced by the renowned Lux Row Distillers. This bottling stands out due to its special high-rye mashbill, which develops a spicier, more intense flavor in contrast to the classic "wheated" version of David Nicholson 1843. With an alcohol content of 50% vol. (100 proof), this bourbon impresses with a deep, complex structure and a pleasantly spicy finish.
It is matured in hand-selected American white oak barrels, which lend the whiskey intense notes of vanilla, roasted caramel and spicy oak. The combination of a high rye content and the traditional distillation method ensures a perfect balance between sweetness and spice. This makes the David Nicholson Reserve an ideal choice for lovers of stronger bourbons with character. (automated translation)
