Two James J.Riddle Peated Bourbon

J. Riddle Peated Bourbon is named after one of Detroit's most legendary and mysterious figures — James Riddle Hoffa, the notorious Teamsters president whose last known location was at a Dearborn restaurant in 1975 before vanishing without a trace. His final resting place remains unknown to this day — and Two James thought that kind of unsolved mystery deserved a whiskey as unconventional as the man himself. J. Riddle Peated Bourbon pairs the sweet robust flavor of Michigan corn bourbon with the elegant smokiness of single malt whiskey — a mash bill of 79% Michigan corn and 21% Scottish peated barley distilled on-site and aged in full-format 53-gallon new American oak barrels at 91 proof. That combination melds the oakiness of American whiskey with a smoke more reminiscent of barbecue than the briny peat of Islay, also bringing notes of fresh-cut wood and sweet vanilla. Malty Scotch notes and sweetness up front, slight spice at mid-palate, leather, tobacco, and small amounts of baking spice — a gateway whiskey that has something for both the Scotch drinker exploring bourbon and the bourbon lover ready to try something smokier. Whether you're a fan of Jimmy Hoffa or not, this bottle is worth tracking down. Buy Two James J. Riddle Peated Bourbon online with fast shipping right to your door.
