The result of many years of experimentation with cask finishing, Doc Swinson's Alter Ego Sherry & Cognac Cask Finish Bourbon Whiskey is based on a masterfully perfected recipe. Crafted from a blend of two straight bourbons from MGPI in Indiana – one with a 21% rye and the other 36% mash bill -- this well-balanced bourbon was aged for 5-6 years in new charred American oak before blending and finishing in three special casks. Using two types of sherry buts – PX and Oloroso – as well as fresh cognac puncheons, the bourbons were finished for 3 months before being married for 1 month in cognac foeders. Bottled at 94.4 proof, this is a truly smooth and light concoction with flavors of honey, oak, and leather on the palate.
A small operation of four employees, Doc Swinson's began with a small batch of bourbon barrels and has since grown in a unique collection of American whiskies. Their dedication to perfecting finishing techniques and delivering exquisite tastes at their Washington facility has won them many accolades at the New York International Spirits Competition, the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, and the SIP awards. Every Doc Swinson's release is a highly limited small batch, bottled at cask strength.
