Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey 0.5L 45% History of Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey: Nowhere in the world is the craft scene as pronounced as in the USA. What began in garages and empty factory buildings in the 1980s has now developed into a worldwide trend. Achieved from the desire to create an alternative to the common mass products of global spirits companies, small, medium-sized companies were formed across the country that lovingly handcrafted first-class spirits that not only impressed with their taste but also with their sustainable production and wealth of innovation. The Journeyman Distillery (journeyman means journeyman), which opened in 2011, shows in its name that the founders clearly feel they belong to the craft scene. In the tranquil village of Three Oaks, in the state of Michigan, the Journeyman distillery produces exclusively certified organic spirits. In addition to different whiskeys, various gin variations and limited specialties are produced in small quantities and from the best ingredients. The distillery building used to be a corset factory. In the EK Warren featherbone factory, corsets were made to measure from quills until the beginning of the 20th century. The use of quills was revolutionary at the time and, compared to the whale bones commonly used, significantly cheaper and faster. The beautiful factory building, which is steeped in history, has been extensively renovated and now houses the Journeyman Distillery, whose absolute flagship product is the Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey. Production of the Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey The Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey is made from a combination of various organically grown grains. The lion's share is made up of organic corn from the Midwest. Together with wheat, which provides a pleasant sweetness, rye, which is responsible for the spiciness in the end product, and the best barley malt, the Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey pays tribute to its American history. Matured in fresh barrels made of American white oak, the Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey shows typical vanilla and caramel notes, a pleasant malt sweetness, spicy oak and tobacco. Each bottle of Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey is filled by hand, labeled, sealed with wax and of course no coloring is added. Taste of the Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon: The deep dark color of the Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey shows even before the bottle is opened that the whiskey has been through a long, intensive maturation process. The nose therefore also presents complex barrel aromas. Vanilla, caramel, raisins, orange peel and coconut flakes are in the foreground. These are supported by a pronounced maltiness and spicy oak. The Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey shows its powerful side on the tongue. The 45% alcohol by volume ensure a strong start, which together with the bourbon-typical softness of vanilla, caramel and sweet grain maltiness creates a wonderful interplay. Notes of orange, green pepper and tobacco emerge in the background. The Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey is extremely complex and multi-layered, the mouthfeel is very pleasant and the finish is long and oily. The Journeyman Featherbone Bourbon Whiskey is perfect for classic bourbon cocktails such as the Old Fashioned or Boulevardier.
