Finish

A full-bodied bourbon, smooth up front with the full, rounded mouth feel of blue corn, finishing with a complex flavors including pecan. With a delicate warmth. Lingering sweet blue corn finish playing homage to the Rubenesque from which it was made.

Overall

Blue corn gives this Bourbon a depth of flavor adding some spicy notes and corn sweetness that pairs perfectly with the Pecan barrel. This one would be good sipping during the holidays and would pair nicely with any pecan forward dessert. This Bourbon is simply delicious neat, a few drops of water or on ice. D

INSTRUCTIONS

Create a simple syrup with toasted pecans. In a pot add 1/2 c pecan pieces, toast the pecans for about a minute until you can smell them and they are lightly toasted. Add 1/2c sugar and 1/2c water to pot. Cook until the sugar is dissolved. Pour in a glass jar with lid and let sit at room temperature overnight to let the pecan oils release. You can keep reserve in the refrigerator and it should last for around 1 month.
