Nelson's Green Brier Distillery
Belle Meade Sour Mash Whiskey Straight Bourbon
Tennessee, USA
Nelson’s Green Brier sources the liquid for their Belle Meade Bourbon from Indiana, and now the ageing process is completed in Nashville. Each batch is a proprietary four-barrel blend with a 30% rye content. The rye shows itself on the finish, bringing earth tones and length alongside a red pepper flake spiciness. The palate is juicier, tasting of ripe nectarines, vanilla and butterscotch.

A great all-around whiskey for sipping or cocktailing. Balanced between sweet (a la Makers Mark) and savory (a la Knob Creek).

It ain’t all about wine. Bourbon warms the soul.🥃. Being from Nashville this one holds a special place in my heart. This one is second only to the one they made in cognac barrels.

Very interesting- starts out like a deeply flavored bourbon, finishes with spicy rye notes.

On the finesse end of the bourbon spectrum. Decent complexity, no complaints.
