Legent Bourbon (No Bull$h!t Bourbon Review)

[@CaptainBerz]

Legent Bourbon is fantastic! Unique in a good way, Legent bourbon packs flavor with a solid body and lots of complexity. I would like to see a higher proof, but that is my only complaint! Otherwise, Legent Bourbon is reasonably priced and seems easy to find here in PA. My Legent bourbon review is an endorsement, as I have a backup bottle of Legent bourbon on my bar! Legent bourbon is a like a budget upper shelf bourbon. The question is, is it bourbon night? For me that is Friday or Saturday. Thanks for watching! From Legent: "Legent® is a Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey partially finished in wine and sherry casks. But it's more than that. It pushes the boundaries for how bourbons can be created while remaining true to the core of bourbon's principles. It's a collaboration between two whiskey legends - Fred Noe & Shinji Fukuyo - and two unique styles of whiskey making." Legent Bourbon is a collaboration between Fred B. Noe of the James B. Beam Distilling Co., and Shinji Fukuyo of the House of Suntory. Mature Beam bourbon is finished in sherry and red wine casks, then expertly blended with additional straight bourbon to create Legent. Nose: Brown sugar, purple grape juice, fresh apples; in the back are subtle figs and raisins; burnt caramel, mild rye spices and light cinnamon; some dry oak; mild-moderate alcohol Taste: Mild sweetness, caramel, brown sugar, Concord grape juice; dry oak Finish: Cabernet like flavors join with white and black pepper spice, dry oak and light barrel char; the finish is longer than expected with a moderate burn Distillery: James B. Beam Distilling Co. Vol: 94 Proof Age: N/A Classification: Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Partially Finished In Wine & Sherry Casks Mashbill Breakdown: 75% Corn | 13% Rye | 12% Malted Barley #DrinkMoreBourbon #Bourbon #BourbonReview #BourbonLife #BourbonDaily

Love this one so much, I got a second bottle this morning. A little dry in the finish, but so damn savory and tasty and satisfying.

[@CaptainBerz]

Agree! I enjoy it.

I bought one for $42.99 at my grocery store. Man it's good. Very unique. I love sherry and wine on its own, but in bourbon is fantastic. I actually bought it b/c of the wine & sherry finish casks not knowing that it's a Beam/Suntory collaboration. I'll be getting a 2nd bottle soon enough. I feel there's enough proof punch/burn for it being a 94 proof. I sure can taste the sherry. I'm glad I took a chance on it.

Capn, I'll give it a try. I did pick up a bottle of Smoke Wagon and it was as you've described. Very enjoyable. Cheers, Mate.

[@CaptainBerz]

Yea, this is another one like Smoke Wagon. Unique! Cheers!

I have not had any Legent. Actually I can't say that I have seen it in the liquor stores I visit. Will have to ask about it. You are probably right, a little more proof would be better.

[@CaptainBerz]

Yea, A little more proof is always good! Haha.

[@Doc-Holliday1776]

Now I have to try it, we could tell you liked this one.

[@CaptainBerz]

Oh yea. Wooooo!

[@zachakey5136]

picked this up as a random buy while getting a couple christmas gift bottles and I think i stumbled onto something uniquely awesome it's worth a try at $35

[@CaptainBerz]

Agree!

[@thomasmadigan6083]

Got mine at Costco for $26.99. Very good.

[@CaptainBerz]

Wow. Jealous of that price!

[@brianmelo8892]

Friday morning bourbon ❤

[@CaptainBerz]

Indeed!

[@warfumble]

Try the award winning Ole Raleigh!

[@CaptainBerz]

Interesting, will do next time I am in Raleigh!

[@axiompixel]

I can’t get this, I found it for $200 and I feel that’s price gouging

[@rtkawano]

Great stuff but higher priced in Hawaii and not that easy to find.
