The Compromise Bourbon \u0026 Rye Blended Whiskey 750ml","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Compromise is a limited-edition, cask-strength blended American whiskey from a collaboration between Nashville Barrel Co. and Nashtucky Whiskey Co., bottled at 122.6 proof (61.3% ABV).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a 50\/50 blend of 9-year-old MGP bourbon from the barrels known as Kelvin and 7-year-old Kentucky rye, created to balance the sweet, approachable nature of bourbon with the bold, herbaceous spice of rye.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a spice-filled affair in which the rye components often lead: toffee and brown sugar up front, then cinnamon, clove and pepper on the palate, and a long, warming finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA true meeting of minds between two independent bottlers, it is a bold gift for anyone who refuses to choose between bourbon and rye.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat, then add a few drops of water to tame the proof.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBourbon and rye are the two pillars of American whiskey. Bourbon, made mostly from corn, leans sweet, with caramel and vanilla from new charred oak; rye, made mostly from rye grain, brings pepper, herbs and baking spice. Blending the two lets a bottler set the balance between sweetness and spice exactly where they want it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndependent bottlers like Nashville Barrel Co. select barrels from established distilleries and bottle them, often at cask strength, without dilution or chill filtration, so the whiskey reaches the glass as close to the barrel as possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt over 120 proof, a few drops of water make a real difference here: they open up the aromas and soften the heat, letting the toffee sweetness and rye spice come through more clearly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toffee and brown sugar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cinnamon, clove and pepper.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and warming.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nashville Barrel Co. and Nashtucky Whiskey Co.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blended Whiskey, Bourbon \u0026amp; Rye, Cask Strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlend:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50% 9-year MGP bourbon, 50% 7-year Kentucky rye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 122.6 proof (61.3% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e United States\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat or with a little water, or stir a bold Old Fashioned.
