Why Liquor Geeks recommends it
This is a seven-year-old straight bourbon from Old Elk, drawn from a single barrel and bottled at cask strength. It is built on a mash bill that sets it apart on any shelf: 51% corn, 34% malted barley and 15% rye. That is four times the malted barley of a typical bourbon, and you taste it right away. The nose brings caramelized sugar, honeycomb, toasted almonds and a touch of dried apricot. The palate is silky and full-bodied, with creamy toffee, buttery shortbread and toasted malt framed by cinnamon, nutmeg and gentle rye spice. The finish runs long with malted chocolate and soft oak. It is the oldest release from Old Elk's high-malt mash bill, which makes it a natural pick for collectors and for curious drinkers who want to understand what malt does to bourbon. We carry it because it is genuinely different, not a variation on a familiar theme, and it rewards slow, attentive sipping.
Pairs well with
- Grilled steak — The bourbon's toffee, caramel and soft oak stand up to the char and richness of a well-seared steak.
- Pecan pie or almond biscotti — Toasted almond, nutty malt sweetness and malted chocolate echo the flavors of a nut-forward dessert.
- Celebratory toast with friends — Its distinctive high-malt profile gives everyone at the table something new to discover and talk about.

Since it's cask strength, should I add water?
Since it's cask strength, should I add water?
It shows its full richness neat, but a few drops of water can open up additional layers and highlight the delicate malt and fruit notes. A single ice cube also slightly mellows the strength while letting the caramel and malt sweetness shine.
