Spirit Works Four Grain Bourbon is light in its overall delivery. While the nose draws you in with sweeter flavors, the palate and finish are just a little too light and short in their delivery. Since you don’t see too many four grain bourbons on the market, Spirit Works Distillery has an opportunity to really differentiate itself from the competition. I would like to see this spend a few more years developing in the barrel to really pull out its fullest potential. That said, this would be a great bourbon to use for a favorite sweeter whiskey cocktail.
