1792 Bottled in Bond is a particularly spicy expression, most likely due to its high rye content of between 15 and 25%. Abiding by the rules sets as part of the Bottled in Bond Act, passed all the way back in 1897, the whiskey is bottled at 100 proof (or 50% ABV). The act also ensures the whiskey comes from a single distillery, from a single season and is aged for at least 4 years.
The nose carries sweet aromas of milk chocolate and orchard fruits that develop into a baked fruit pie on the palate, alongside notes of creamy vanilla, cinnamon and toffee apples that linger on in the finish.
