Tin City Premium Bourbon is a four-year-old bourbon from Tin City Distillery in Paso Robles, California, made from a mash of 75% corn and 25% rye and aged in fully charred new American oak.
Tin City Distillery takes its name from Tin City, the industrial park of craft wineries, breweries and distilleries in Paso Robles on California's Central Coast. The distillery's roots run deep, like the enduring oak trees of the Central Coast, and the oak on its label stands for generations of craftsmanship, family tradition and a commitment to local detail. It makes brandy, vodka, gin, whiskey and canned cocktails.
First released in 2021, the bourbon is aged a full four years in Paso Robles. It is subtly sweet, with the vanilla and char that come from new American oak. Sweet honeysuckle, vanilla and oak open the palate, vibrant baking spice leads to hints of toffee and fresh apple, and it closes with a lingering finish of oak and toasted almonds.
It makes a fine gift from California wine country.
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.
