After a successful judging session in New York in the month of August, Red Line Whiskey Co. has received Double Gold medal for our Cask Strength 6 year Straight Bourbon from the wine and spirits industry’s most trusted authorities, not only on the subject of quality wines and spirits, but also on the regional tastes and trends that drive the wine and spirits markets.
The NYWSC is a member of The Tasting Alliance, the parent organization of the world-renowned San Francisco World Spirits Competition, San Francisco International Wine Competition, and Singapore World Spirits Competition.
We are really excited that our Cask Strength Bourbon scored so highly on the various factors making it a great spirit for the consumers to enjoy. We really put a lot of emphasis on creating a brand with broad consumer appeal, and one that Whiskey drinkers will enjoy for a variety of different occasions. This award is really another validation of our ability to curate premium whiskeys.
Tasting Notes:
There’s a lovely sweetness that arrives on the nose with a hint of burnt sugars and brown butter just starting to coalesce into caramel with a flake of salt and a sense of rum-raisin and an echo of charred oak. The palate leans into a light apple compote with a hint of plum and plenty of wintry spices next to vanilla and wicker before the warmth of the ABVs peak on the mid-palate. The end is soft and supple with a sense of spiced prune jam, old porch wicker, and allspice berries.
