Description
Indiana Bourbon Finished in Rare Japanese Oak
Hard Truth Distilling Co., nestled in the rolling hills of Brown County, Indiana, has built a reputation for pushing the boundaries of American whiskey. Their Mizunara expression takes their signature small-batch bourbon and finishes it in rare Japanese Mizunara oak casks — a wood prized in the Scotch and Japanese whisky worlds for imparting exotic notes of sandalwood, incense, and coconut. The result is a distinctly American bourbon with an unmistakably Eastern soul.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Warm vanilla and caramel upfront, followed by delicate sandalwood, toasted coconut, and a whisper of incense from the Mizunara finish
- Palate: Rich corn sweetness, baking spice, and dried fruit layered with exotic oak tannins and a subtle floral quality unique to Japanese oak
- Finish: Long and warming with lingering notes of cedar, vanilla cream, and a gentle spice that fades gracefully
