Frank August Case Study: 04

Introducing Frank August's Case Study: 04—a masterful blend of double-oaked Kentucky Straight Bourbon and Rye Whiskeys. This limited-edition release, known as "4X Oaked," undergoes a meticulous aging process, enhancing its depth and complexity. Uniquely, it's "proofed in barrel," maturing to a precise 95 proof over an additional 12-14 months. The result? A harmonious fusion of bourbon's sweetness and rye's spice, delivering a rich, full-bodied experience. 

Nose: Sweet vanilla and baking spices intertwine with rye's sharpness and warm oak undertones. Evolving hints of brown sugar, dried fruits, and subtle leather add depth.

Palate: Velvety caramelized sugars and baked apples greet the palate, followed by vibrant rye spices. Notes of toasted almonds, buttery toffee, and clove emerge, creating a complex profile.

Finish: Long and evolving, with lingering mint chocolate, cinnamon, dark roasted coffee, and spiced oak. Each sip reveals new layers, inviting further exploration.

Pair this exquisite whiskey with smoked brisket or charred ribeye to complement its rich, oaky character. For a sweeter contrast, enjoy alongside dark chocolate truffles or a spiced pecan pie. Its versatility also enhances classic cocktails like the Old Fashioned or Manhattan.
