Barrels on the warmest upper floors see the most severe temperature swings, where summer heat drives the bourbon into the wood and winter cold pulls it back out, extracting more oak, caramel and spice with every cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is an exceptional balance of heat and spice. Aromas of clove and oak spice lead to buttery leather and a bold flash of pepper and cinnamon bark, and an intense finish of spice and eucalyptus fades into orange cream and caramel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA bourbon with a cinematic story, it makes a fun gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBourbon 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.
