Thomas S. Moore Port Cask Finish Bourbon Whiskey 750ml
DescriptionThomas S. Moore's Port Cask Finish brings the rich, sweet influence of Portuguese port wine to American bourbon, creating a luxurious expression that exemplifies the art of cask finishing. This bourbon showcases what happens when the robust character of American whiskey meets the fruit-forward sweetness of port. The result is a whiskey of remarkable depth and complexity. The nose immediately captivates with aromas of dark cherries, fig preserves, and rich caramel, all underlaid with classic bourbon vanilla.
On the palate, the port influence shines through magnificently—waves of dark berry compote, chocolate-covered raisins, and honeyed sweetness create an almost dessert-like quality that never becomes cloying. What distinguishes this finish is the perfect balance achieved between the bourbon's native character and the port's influence. The base bourbon provides structure and spice, while the port adds layers of fruit and sweetness that create remarkable complexity.
The finish is exceptionally long and satisfying, with notes of dark chocolate, dried fruits, and warm spices that seem to go on forever. This is bourbon for special occasions—it's rich, luxurious, and demands to be savored slowly. Thomas S. Moore has created something that transcends typical finished bourbons, offering an experience that's both indulgent and sophisticated.
