Spirits Reviews
Puncher’s Chance Kentucky Straight Bourbon
Brilliant, deep bronze color. The nose is filled with bold scents of caramel, sweet baked apples, red chili-accented toffee, charred, oak, and brown baking spices. The palate echoes the nose delivering a sweet, baked fruit-centered core with generous supporting notes of vanilla cream, chocolate, orange peel, and hints of saddle leather. Full-bodied with bold fruit, caramel, and oak flavors that maintain a vibrancy due to bright acidity and ideal balance. Made with a blend of four, five, and six-year-old Kentucky Straight Bourbons by the Wolf Spirit Distillery. $34.99 – 4.5 Stars
