Locke + Co. Distilling DU Aspen Honey Reserve Bourbon 750 ml

Locke + Co. Distilling DU Aspen Honey Reserve is a bourbon released under a small-run reserve label rather than a national brand, the kind of bottle that rarely travels far from where it was made. We are not going to guess at its recipe or its time in wood, so take the glass on its own terms and let the category set the frame: corn-led grain aged in new charred oak, nothing added but time and water. Expect honeyed sweetness and vanilla on the nose, a palate of caramel, toasted grain and light baking spice, and a finish that runs warm and gently oaky. Pour it neat first, then over one large cube.
