Springfield Distillery Bourbon from Cooperstown Distillery is a handcrafted small-batch bourbon blend bottled at 90 proof (45% ABV) in a hand-blown glass decanter shaped like a professional basketball.
The bourbon is a handcrafted blend of younger bourbons and Cooperstown Distillery's small-batch bourbon, two distinctive styles hand selected for their individual character and flavor, which together bring softness on the palate along with layers of depth and complexity. The distiller bumped this fine young bourbon to 90 proof to accentuate its finish. Each decanter is individually hand blown in the shape of a professional basketball, with a replica pebbled-leather stopper and a raised pedestal base that renders an official basketball court.
Smooth and complex, it carries caramel and butterscotch into a finish rounded out by sweet toffee.
An exceptionally smooth bourbon and the perfect gift for the hoops fan.
Bourbon must be made in the United States from a mash of at least 51% corn and aged in new charred oak containers, and straight bourbon must be aged at least two years. Those rules give bourbon its characteristic sweetness, with caramel and vanilla drawn from the charred barrels.
