JEFFERSON'S RES BOURBON OCEAN

Jefferson's Ocean takes already-aged Kentucky bourbon barrels aboard cargo ships that cross the equator multiple times and stop on five continents. The constant ship motion forces the whiskey deeper into the oak with each wave, while exposure to sea air drives a briny, savory quality into the liquid. The result pours nearly black, with caramelized sugars producing dark rum-like depth alongside that coastal salinity. Expect dense toffee, dried fruit, and charred oak up front, a savory mid-palate, and a long finish with lingering sea salt and vanilla.
