About Doc Swinson's Exploratory Cask Bossa Nova Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Exploratory Cask Bossa Nova Straight Bourbon Whiskey starts with the same delicious base as all Doc Swinson's expressions ― a blend of 2 MGP mash bills. The first consists of 60% corn, 36% rye, and 4% malted barley, while the second is distilled from 75% corn, 21% rye, and 4% malted barley. Bossa Nova takes its inspiration from Brazil's rainforest and sand beaches ― exotic is the name of the game. After the base whiskey spent 5 years maturing in American oak (#4 char) casks, it was finished in amburana casks. Amburana is a Brazilian legume tree that's all the rage in whiskey-making due to its unique capabilities when it comes to maturation. In this case, it imparted cinnamon spice and sweetness to the whiskey, resulting in a well-rounded sipper that's bottled at 112.8 proof. Bossa Nova won a Double Platinum medal at the 2023 Ascot Awards.

About Doc Swinson's
A small operation of four employees, Doc Swinson's began with a small batch of bourbon barrels and has since grown in a unique collection of American whiskies. Their dedication to perfecting finishing techniques and delivering exquisite tastes at their Washington facility has won them many accolades at the New York International Spirits Competition, the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, and the SIP awards. Every Doc Swinson's release is a highly limited small batch, bottled at cask strength.
There are not many things more American than bourbon, and although most of it is produced in Kentucky, it can be produced all over the USA. It must be made with at least 51% corn and bottled at 40% ABV or higher. So why not give this American classic a try?
The nose is sweet with vanilla, cinnamon, and cookie aromas. Look for brown butter, cinnamon, and fruit on the palate that leads to a long, sweet finish.
