Product Description:
Nulu Maple Brûlée Straight Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Maple Brûlée Barrels
Nulu Maple Brûlée is where classic bourbon heritage meets innovative cask artistry. Starting with hand-selected straight bourbon from Indiana, this expression undergoes a rare secondary maturation in barrels that once held rich maple syrup. These ex-bourbon casks are re-charred and brûléed caramelizing the residual sugars and reconstructing the oak to create a one-of-a-kind vessel for aging. The result is a whiskey that transcends categories an indulgent balance of deep bourbon structure with the silky sweetness of maple and caramelized oak.
Tasting Notes
- Appearance: Amber with golden highlights, luminous with hints of syrup-soaked oak.
- Nose: Waves of toasted oak and maple candy swirl with vanilla cream, roasted nuts, and a hint of baking spice.
- Palate: Lush and layered. Caramelized sugar, crème brûlée, and candied pecans flow seamlessly into buttery toffee and spiced bourbon richness.
- Finish: Long, warm, and dessert-like, echoing toasted marshmallow, maple drizzle, and a soft cinnamon glow.
