Description

Smoke Wagon Straight Bourbon stands out as a bold representation of bourbon craftsmanship, originating from the arid landscapes of Nevada. With an impressive ABV of 57.5%, this straight bourbon commands attention with its robust presence. Its high rye content introduces a distinctive spiciness, harmoniously interwoven with an underlying sweetness that creates a well-rounded flavor experience. Typical of bourbons, expect notes of charred oak and warm vanilla, enhanced by the unique conditions of the Nevada desert, which contribute to its complex character. This bourbon is best served neat, where its full-bodied nature can be fully appreciated, or with a splash of water to open up the intricate layers of its spice and sweet undertones. For those who prefer a slightly cooler experience, serving it on the rocks is an excellent option, as the gradual melting of ice tempers its strength without diluting its essence. The nuanced aroma and flavors of Smoke Wagon Straight Bourbon are best experienced in a Glencairn glass, which allows for optimal nosing and sipping. While this bourbon shines on its own, its robust profile also makes it a versatile base for classic cocktails. It provides a spirited backbone for an Old Fashioned, where the interplay of sugar and bitters accentuates its innate sweetness and spice. In a Manhattan, its high rye content complements the vermouth, resulting in a balanced, sophisticated cocktail. Whether you're exploring its potential in drinks or savoring it straight, Smoke Wagon Straight Bourbon offers a unique taste of Nevada's distilling prowess.

    Strong pour, definitely packs some heat. Liked it on a big rock but not sure I'll go for another bottle soon, might reach for something lighter next time.

    Totally get wanting something less bold after this one. If you want to try a softer bourbon, ask about Old Elk when you're in.

    that rye kick hits just right, but still smooth enough to sip straight. Took it camping with buddies last weekend, barely made it to midnight. Wild how good this is for the price.

    Response from CBC Liquors, Westford

    Heard from a few folks that Smoke Wagon makes a solid campfire companion. Glad you enjoyed it out there.
