Starlight Distillery, from Indiana, has been around for a while but is really starting to make its name in New Jersey! Not MGP, Starlight has their own farm and grows their own grains, even tweaking them in order to produce better whiskies. Our latest store pick is their cask strength Four Grain Bourbon Blend that we picked with our friends at Beneath The Char. As you can see from the label, there's nice banana notes in here, particularly on the nose. The first sip you take you take will have a bit of heat from the cask strength, but it's assertive– not overbearing for its 112 proof range. However, the most remarkable part about this whiskey is the unrelenting chewy, malt-driven finish that still carries that banana note with it with a slight taffy characteristic. So pour yourself a glass, let it sit for a little bit, take a sniff, and you're going to get a caramelized brown sugar note that lingers throughout the sip. This is a well-done dram you'll want to keep coming back to after each sip; it's absolutely fantastic!
