Reverence Bourbon: A Tribute to Resilience and Tennessee Craftsmanship
Reverence Bourbon stands out as a unique Tennessee bourbon crafted from a meticulous blend of two differently aged barrels, ensuring a rich and incomparable flavor profile. Founder Michael Frazier's personal journey, inspired by the challenges his family faced post-9/11, infuses the brand with a deep sense of resilience and purpose. This bourbon, aged in new charred oak barrels for each batch, boasts a precise corn-to-rye ratio complemented by a touch of barley, resulting in the premium oak flavor cherished by bourbon enthusiasts. Its tasting notes, ranging from caramel and maple on the nose to chocolate and oak on the palate, culminate in a smooth finish with hints of fresh spearmint. With a mash bill comprising 77% corn, 13% rye, and 10% barley, Reverence embodies the spirit of Tennessee craftsmanship and perseverance. Established in Nashville in June 2020, Reverence Bourbon exemplifies a celebration of life's successes and the enduring spirit of the Volunteer State. As I have yet to sample this release which is Batch 3, I asked a friend and former coworker for a quick review."This particular batch was the third batch that hasn’t been released to the public just yet. Now, this review is based on my [palate]." said Mr. Oliver. "You may have a different taste for your bourbon. However, for me, this bourbon is a higher proof at 94, without the sting of more traditional ryes. It’s best with a few rocks to open up the quality of the drink. I could taste the barrel it was aged in by the charred taste, but it wasn’t bad because it perfectly complemented the hint of cherry sweetness and surprisingly a slight hint of banana. It’s a good drink for slow sipping, otherwise you’ll be drunk on accident. Overall it has its own flavor and distinguished taste that makes it unique from any other bourbon ... but tastes good without the alcohol being overpowering."With that said, I can't wait to try Reverence. Earlier releases are currently available at various liquor stores across Tennessee. Looking for more information? Check out the Reverence website at https://reverenceenterprises.com/.
