Resilient Bottled-in-Bond Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Resilient is the independent bottling label of BC Merchants and founder Brian Ciske, best known for single barrels of old Tennessee bourbon, and this Bottled-in-Bond is its more approachable everyday release. The whiskey comes from an undisclosed Indiana distillery, with a mash bill of 60% corn, 36% rye and 4% malted barley, the high-rye recipe that whiskey drinkers will recognize as the Lawrenceburg, Indiana house bourbon that supplies many of the country's best-regarded sourced brands. It was aged four years in newly charred 53-gallon American oak, which is the minimum for the bonded designation, and bottled at Stanford, Kentucky at exactly 100 proof (50% ABV), meeting the 1897 Bottled-in-Bond Act requirement that the whiskey be the product of one distillery and one distilling season, aged at least four years in a federally bonded warehouse and bottled at 100 proof. It is batched in lots of roughly four barrels. Retailer tasting notes describe buttery toffee, poached pear, vanilla syrup, caramel wafer, candied cinnamon and dried clove on the nose, ripe stone fruit and baked apple on the palate followed by rye-driven cinnamon bark and black pepper over toasted oak, and a medium-long finish where caramel and baking spice fade together.
