Description
Established in 2012, Black Button Distilling was Rochester’s first grain-to-glass distillery since prohibition. Jason Barrett, the founder and head distiller, comes from a family that manufactured buttons, hence the name Black Button. It is called a black button because Jason is color blind. They have drastically increased their production capacity in the last few years and are now not only making whiskey for their own brands but also contract distilling. They are still located in downtown Rochester, New York.
Taste
Made from 80% Corn, 10% Malted Barley, and 10% Rye | 90% of the grains come from New York State
Matured for a minimum of 5 years
Brand Tasting Notes: On the nose, a bright sweetness and fresh cracked corn, with hints of musk and mature wood. Immediately after you sip this Bourbon, you are hit with a big character of cinnamon spice and sweet caramel. That cinnamon spice turns more into a cinnamon candy as the bourbon rolls over your tongue, leaving warmth and sweetness with a very full body. At the finish, a lingering dry tannic note with earthy spice and a mild sweetness.
Holly’s Tasting Notes: Warm buttery fruit, green apples, blue raspberry Jolly Ranchers, and pop rocks. The palate has a nice raspberry note with orange, toasted oats, and lemon lime.
