Proof & Wood The Representative 115.16 Proof #119 - Selected by Seelbach's

Regular price $49.99 Sale

Proof: 115.16 proof

Mash Bill: 74/21/5 Corn/Rye/Malted Barley

Bottle Count: 202 bottles

Tasting Notes: There’s a clean woodsiness to it, while still having classic honey, toffee, and dark leaning berries. After that, sweeter hot chocolate and caramel notes continue to grow, with a slight whiff of sweet oak. 

The palate follows closely to the nose with big berry and cherry notes, lots of dense brown sugar, and a strong showing of sweet oak. There’s plenty of toffee growing on the palate, as well as prominent peppery spice.
 
The finish is long, chocolatey, and spiced - like a big mug of Mexican hot chocolate with heavy handed cayenne pepper. 

About: At Proof & Wood Ventures, Inc., we invest in and develop spirits brands, and age our own spirits. Our core business is sourcing and bottling fine American whiskies, but we also import other high-quality spirits from around the world that were not available in the US previously. Founder Dave Schmier is delighted to be able to create both cocktail-friendly bottlings for value-focused bartenders and high-end collectors’ editions for connoisseurs.

Our name comes from the two things we control as a blender and finisher of fine spirits, and the two things that are incredibly important to any spirit’s flavor: the proof it’s bottled at, and the wood of the barrel we age it in.
