Maple KO's Bourbon Blind Tasting
No. 14 – Bourbon Whiskey Finished with Pure Vermont Maple Syrup 1. Vermont Heritage in Every Drop Distilled by Vermont Spirits in Quechee, this small-batch bourbon is finished with pure Vermont maple syrup sourced from an 8th-generation family farm just ten miles from the distillery — honoring the local land and its legacy. 2. Balanced, Not Flavored While the maple finish adds sweetness, it’s subtle enough to let the bourbon’s 80% corn mashbill and 4.5-year maturity shine through. It aims for harmony, not syrupy overload. 3. Chef’s Touch in the Barrel Created by Head Distiller Don Kolp, a former chef with 30 years of culinary precision, No. 14 shows intentional blending meant to complement, not dominate. 🏌️ Verdict: 2.5 / 5 — Par / Bogie Pleasant and approachable, but light in body and complexity. A fine fall sipper — more charm than challenge.
