Green River Full Proof Single Barrel Bourbon (officially released as the Green River Full Proof Single Barrel program) is a highly regarded, uncut, and unfiltered cask-strength Kentucky straight bourbon.
Unlike the standard "Full Proof" batched release which is consistently proofed down to a uniform 117.3 proof, these private store selections are bottled straight from a individual barrel at true cask strength.
- Nose: Leads with heavy brown sugar, vanilla frosting, and deep caramel. The high rye content introduces bright baking spices, a touch of mint, and hints of orchard or stone fruits like green apple and peach.
- Palate: A massive, coating rush of classic sweet corn, butterscotch, and "sugar cookie" notes. This sweetness is immediately countered by a powerful wave of black pepper, cinnamon, and spearmint spice.
- Finish: Long, warm, and oak-forward. It frequently leaves a lingering impression of dark red fruits (like cherry jam) paired with a drying, peppery barrel proof kick.
