Belle Meade Bourbon Madeira PlumpJack Cask Bourbon Whiskey

Belle Meade bourbon is produced at Nelson’s Greenbrier Distillery in Nashville, TN. It is in a select group of brands that existed a long time ago, then closed, only to be re-opened decades later by family decedents of the original founder. The Belle Meade Plantation was once a world famous horse farm in Tennessee owned by the Sperry Wade & Company. They contracted a man named Charles Nelson to create whiskies for their plantation and it became a huge hit. It was sold from 1878 to 1909, until Tennessee adopted statewide prohibition. In 2006 Charlie and Andy Nelson were inspired to resurrect the brand after visiting a local butcher who pointed out buildings across the street from his shop that had once belonged to the distillery. After taking one sip from the spring water that had once fed into the abandoned still house, they new they were going to be in the whiskey business. They formed the business in 2009 and in 2015 began operating a still house in Nashville. This barrel of Belle Meade bourbon was aged for just over 10 years in New American oak before being finished in Madeira casks for a few months. The whiskey pours a beautiful golden brown color into the glass. One sniff and you can immediately tell the Madeira influence in the whiskey.

Nose: Sweet, dried tropical fruits like papaya and mango, burnt caramel, and California golden raisins emerge from the glass.

Palate: Your first initial sip re-confirms the Madeira influence with more fruit flavors complimented by a dry nutty finish. It’s funky! Big and bold, this full-bodied whiskey goes down really smooth, especially for the higher proof of over 56% ABV.

Finish: Dry finish.
