Metal Blade Records Teams Up with Rare Character Whiskey Company to Release MBR Branded Bourbon!
Los Angeles, CA based record label, METAL BLADE RECORDS, has collaborated with the hardworking and incredible team over at RARE CHARACTER WHISKEY COMPANY to release its very own branded bourbon whiskey.
Distilled in Indiana and aged in Kentucky, METAL BLADE’s VTO – STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY is a popular mashbill that we all know and love. Originating from Indiana, VTO’s unique aging process in Kelvin Char 4 barrels within the bluegrass state exposes them to a wide range of temperature swings and humidity. This meticulous aging process results in a deep, dark, and rich bourbon with a complex flavor profile, featuring notes of vintage cherry cola and tobacco.
Upon sniffing the glass, you’re greeted with a delightful aroma of cherry syrup, dense oak, sarsaparilla, vanilla cream, baking spice, and subtle notes of butterscotch.
Across your palate, you’ll find similar notes to those on your nose, ranging from root beer to cream soda, and even cherry vanilla cola. These notes are complemented by nuances of butterscotch, baking spice, and tobacco.
This barrel code offers a medium-long finish that reminds you of its cola bomb nature. It features caramel, butterscotch, vanilla, and light baking spice flavors in the middle, followed by dry leather, tobacco, and aged oak notes at the end.
BARREL NO: VTO-020PROOF: 123.78AGE: 9 YR 7 MOALC/VOL: 61.89%
