- Description
- I W Harper's four-year bourbon base, finished in Cabernet Sauvignon casks, gains wine tannin structure and dark fruit influences from the secondary ageing. The cask finish bridges bourbon's vanilla-forward character with wine's berry complexity. Best served neat or with minimal dilution to appreciate the interplay between bourbon and wine cask.
