The name of the Bottled-In-Bond release is a historic reference to the 1897 Bottled in Bond Act, which mandated that whiskey is made, aged and bottled entirely by one distillery, from barrels filled in one season, by one distiller. Add the word Excelsior, meaning "ever upward" and you get a 100% New York Straight Bourbon, produced in the old-fashioned way. Aged for 4 years in new American oak casks, which are all sourced in New York State, and bottled at almost barrel strength, this is a classic, pure expression. Since only a dash of water is added to bottle proof, the Coppersea signature low-barrel proof really stands out at 100 proof. With notes of fig, almond and woodsmoke, it is a quintessential New York whisky.
Coppersea Excelsior Bottled In Bond Straight Bourbon Whisky Tasting Notes
Nose: On the nose, it’s candy corn, tickling you with some black pepper and nutmeg due to the high rye content.
Palate: On the palate, there is fig, almond and woodsmoke.
Finish: The finish is rich, smooth, with a salty aftertaste.
Distillery Information
At Coppersea Distillery, which is situated near Holy Cross Monastery on a bluff above the Hudson River, “heritage distilling” includes a green malting process which has been little used in the past 300 years. While most distilleries purchase their grain already malted and dried, Coppersea floor malts its grain — all of which is sourced locally — at the distillery and is one of only a handful of distilleries to still use this technique.
