Bingham's Bourbon Original Texas Straight Bourbon Whiskey 750

Bingham's Bourbon Original is the house Texas straight bourbon, the everyday bottle in the range rather than the reserve. Texas heat does the heavy lifting on maturation here, driving spirit deep into the char and pulling out colour and tannin quicker than a cooler climate would, which is why Texas bourbon so often drinks older than its years. The nose is vanilla, corn sweetness and toasted oak. The palate follows with caramel, baked apple and cinnamon over a firm oak spine, and the finish is medium-long and drying with gentle spice. This is a mixing-and-sipping bottle both. Take it neat, over ice, or as the backbone of a Texas old fashioned.
