About this bottle
Sonoma Distilling Co. California Smoked Bourbon is a straight bourbon made in Sonoma County from corn, rye and a share of malted barley that the distillery smokes in-house over cherrywood. It's double distilled in copper pot stills, aged a minimum of three years and bottled at 92 proof. The smoke is gentle and sweet rather than ashy: maraschino cherry and wood smoke on the nose, allspice and vanilla on the palate, and a toasty, lightly smoky finish over corn sweetness. It's a good bridge for a bourbon drinker curious about smoky whiskey, or for a peated-Scotch fan looking for something American.
How to drink Sonoma California Smoked Bourbon
Try it in an Old Fashioned first; cherrywood smoke and a twist of orange are made for each other. Neat or on one cube it drinks easily at 92 proof, and it turns a Whiskey Sour into something worth a second round.

Questions about this bottle
How is the smoke in Sonoma California Smoked Bourbon made?
Part of the malted barley in the mash is smoked in-house over cherrywood before distilling, so the smoke comes from the grain rather than the barrel.
Is it peaty like a smoky Scotch?
No. Cherrywood smoke is sweeter and lighter than peat, so it reads as toasty and fruity rather than medicinal.
What cocktails work well with it?
An Old Fashioned, a Whiskey Sour or a Manhattan all pick up a gentle layer of smoke from it.
