San Diego Distillery Cask Strength Bourbon Whiskey

Started by beer homebrewing aficionado Trent Tilton, the San Diego Distillery hopes to capitalize on some of the creative processes used in backyard beer-making, combining all sorts of innovative ingredients to produce whiskeys with interesting flavor profiles. “People become loyal to a brewery,” he explained in an interview, “but they don’t necessarily go back for the same beer — they go back to see what new beers that brewery is making.”As a result, the whiskeys offered by San Diego Distillery are all babies: the longest aged are only several months old. He does this by storing the liquor in small casks, about 5-20 gallons, to maximize interaction with the wood. It’s one of a number of ways craft distilleries are using to speed up the maturation process.

San Diego Distillery Cask Strength Bourbon Whiskey Tasting Notes

Nose: A medium-bodied nose, with hints of cloves, wood polish, and roasted apples.

Palate: Sweet and smokey. The flavor comes on strong, with a heavy wave of malt that really overpowers the rest of the flavor profile.

Finish: The aftertaste leaves a rather cloying sweetness on the back of the tongue.
