Heaven's Door Bootleg Series Volume V - 2023 Edition Straight Bourbon Whiskey (Bob Dylan) 18 Year Old

Colour

Deep amber with copper-bronze highlights and a warm, ruby-tinged glow.

Nose

Luxurious caramel and honey rise with vanilla and toasted oak, a warm bourbon backbone. The Spanish vermouth rouge finish threads in red-wine perfume—orange zest, dried cherry and spice—woven through silky sweetness. The nose is inviting, elegantly persistent, with hints of toffee and a refined, lingering warmth.

Palate

Opulent caramel and honey anchor the palate, with vanilla adding a creamy, oak-kissed depth. The Spanish vermouth rouge finish introduces light spice, dried citrus and cocoa, weaving an elegant, nuanced profile. Velvet mouthfeel, then a clean, pleasantly lingering finish that mirrors the whiskey’s refined maturity.

Finish

Clean, pleasant and long, the finish carries caramel and vanilla into a mellow honeyed sweetness, with a subtle vermouth rouge lift that lingers gracefully on the palate.
