Parallel 45 Distillery – Border Bourbon New Richmond, Wisconsin, USA NOSE: A whiff of apple cinnamon, with a trace of toffee aroma. PALATE: Gentle spice fills and coats the mouth, with a pleasant warmth that lingers after swallowing. Notes of flambeed banana give way to a soft, slightly minty coolness. An aftertaste of very dark honey emerges without overt sweetness. FINISH: Off-dry and straightforward without being one-note. AWARDS: Featured in Wine Enthusiast's Top 100 Spirits of 2018.
