Casey Jones Total Eclipse Four Grain Kentucky Straight Bourbon
Casey Jones Total Eclipse Four Grain Kentucky Straight Bourbon is a commemorative craft spirit produced in Hopkinsville, Kentucky. It was launched in February 2024 as the "Official Bourbon of the 2024 Total Solar Eclipse," marking the second time the distillery was positioned directly in the path of totality (the first being in 2017). Unlike the distillery's flagship high-corn recipes, this expression utilizes their modern Mash Bill #4, designed to provide a more balanced and complex profile that appeals to a wide range of whiskey enthusiasts.
Description
This four-grain bourbon is distilled in small batches using the distillery's signature square copper pot still and aged for a minimum of two to four years.
Mash Bill: A perfectly balanced four-grain blend consisting of 75% Yellow Dent Corn, 10% Wheat, 10% Rye, and 5% Malted Barley.
Appearance: Bright copper with a rich, luminous glow.
Nose: Highly aromatic and "perfumy." It features a mix of baking spices, butterscotch, and graham crackers, with unique hints of spicy green pepper and persimmon.
Palate: A warm, creamy texture that reveals layers of funky cherry, orange zest, and dried tropical fruits (like mango and papaya). It is balanced by toasted pecans, Szechuan peppercorn, and honeyed malt.
Finish: Smooth and persistent. The experience ends with notes of buttered kettle corn, toasted nuts, and lingering oak tannins, often described as having a "Suns-out" brightness.
Technical Details: Bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV).
