This inspired bourbon has rich and deep notes of vanilla, citrus, dark chocolate, brown sugar, and dark stone fruits which deliver a lingering, warm finish. The art of finishing and blending bourbon across the three casks imparts distinctive notes to the finished spirit.
Joseph Magnus Bourbon is comprised of 12-year-old bourbon from MGP in Indiana and triple-cask finished over several months in Oloroso sherry, Pedro Ximenez sherry, and cognac casks at the Jos.
Samples were taken from that 122-year-old bottle and the liquid was reverse-engineered. After Magnus' great-grandson rediscovered an old bottle of his ancestor's whiskey amongst family heirlooms, the idea was hatched to revive the art of finished bourbon.
distillery was re-established in 2015, but the legacy of Joseph Magnus Bourbon dates back to the 1890s.
