Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
Fifteen years in new American white oak is a long stretch for bourbon, and this Kentucky Straight Bourbon from the historic I.W. Harper brand wears that time gracefully rather than heavily. Bottled at 86 proof (43% ABV), it opens with baked apple, raisin and vanilla cream, then moves through honeyed cereal, caramel and baking spice before settling into well-developed oak and a touch of leather. The finish is long and dry, with a soft return of fruit and grain sweetness. That balance is what makes it distinctive: a well-aged bourbon that stays approachable at a gentle proof, so it suits the drinker exploring older bourbon for the first time as much as the collector who wants a contemplative pour. It earned a Double Gold Medal in 2022 and a Gold Medal in 2021 at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. We carry it because it rewards slow, neat sipping, and because a bottle like this makes a thoughtful pour for special occasions.
Pairs well with
- Maple-glazed pork belly — The bourbon's caramel and vanilla sweetness echoes the maple glaze while its baking spice cuts through the richness.
- Dark chocolate truffles — Raisin and dried fruit notes plus toasted oak make a natural match for the bittersweet depth of dark chocolate.
- Quiet evening with a cigar — A mild-to-medium cigar with nutty or creamy undertones complements the long, dry finish of mellow spice and toasted oak.
