Old Elk Bourbon is a small-batch American bourbon built around a high-malt mash bill, producing a notably smooth, coating texture with layered sweet and nutty character. Old Elk leads with aromas of sweet vanilla and caramel, with hints of clove alongside a slight maple note and nutty almond. The palate is smooth and coating, carrying a lasting flavor of maple syrup, chocolate, deep wood, and coconut. The higher proportion of malted barley in the mash bill is the source of that rounded, mellow texture. It is well suited to sipping neat or over ice, where the coating mouthfeel and sweet, nutty depth come through.
