Abraham Bowman Oak Series: French Oak

Introducing the latest addition to A. Smith Bowman Distillery’s repertoire: the Abraham Bowman Oak Series – French Oak. Crafted from an acclaimed mash bill, this exceptional whiskey stands apart with a flavor profile distinct from its peers in the collection. It’s a masterful blend of liquids aged for 12 years in French Oak barrels, some charred and some not.

“Our approach involved allowing these barrels to mature for an extended duration to accentuate their unique characteristics,” remarked Head Distiller David Bock. “Upon blending, the vanilla essence from the non-charred barrels harmonizes beautifully with the peppery undertones of the charred ones, resulting in a captivating and delectable fusion. We’re truly thrilled with the outcome.”

Bottled at 100 proof, the Abraham Bowman Oak Series – French Oak exhibits a subtle caramel hue reminiscent of freshly minted currency. On the nose, enticing aromas of cherry and caramel dance in the air. The palate delights in a sweet vanilla essence juxtaposed with a hint of spice, underscored by the rich oak imparted by prolonged aging. The finish leaves a refreshing hint of crisp cinnamon apple lingering on the tongue.
