Photo ©2017, Mark Gillespie/CaskStrength Media.This 4-grain Bourbon from South Carolina’s High Wire Distilling skips the rye in favor of Carolina Gold rice along with heirloom white corn, red winter wheat, and malted barley. The nose has notes of roasted corn, honey, brown sugar, vanilla, and oak tannins. The taste has a touch of burned popcorn, along with black pepper, honey, molasses, and a hint of brown sugar. The finish is long and smoky with touches of underlying sweetness. (September, 2017)
