Only after distilling the signature spirit and aging it in new American oak casks are they infusing it with the cold-steeped coffee. We’re talking about custom-roast Arabica beans from the Agalta region of Honduras. Therefore, the bourbon exudes pleasant aromas of molasses, sweet corn, spice, and fresh-brewed coffee.
