Jimmy Red Bourbon Whiskey Finished In Peach Brandy Casks

Discover High Wire Distilling’s Jimmy Red Bourbon Finished in Peach Brandy Casks—a South Carolina craft gem rooted in revival and innovation. Made from 100% heirloom Jimmy Red corn, this bourbon gains extra depth from recently emptied peach brandy barrels aged near Charleston. Bottled at a flavorful 95 proof (47.5 % ABV), it pours with a warm amber glow, merging classic corn sweetness with subtle fruit complexity. High Wire’s grain‑to‑glass philosophy shines here—from regeneration of endangered corn to finishing in local brandy casks, every bottle tells a Southern story. The result is a beautifully balanced whiskey with creamy texture, fruit‑driven layers, and enduring spice. Ideal neat or starring in cocktails like a mint julep revival.

Nose: Toasted graham, peach cobbler, baking spice, vanilla creaminess.

Palate: Soft peach notes emerge—bright yet grounded—layered with creamy corn sweetness, gentle spice, and smooth vanilla.

Finish: Warm, mildly spiced, with lingering peach-scented oak and a touch of graham sweetness.

Pair with peach galette or caramel cheesecake to echo its fruity sweetness. For contrast, try aged Manchego or spiced pecans—savory richness balance meets peach warmth effortlessly.
