Tasting Profile & Food Pairings
Taste Notes: As a Bottled-in-Bond release, the Old Fitzgerald 11 Year Old Bourbon promises a robust and authentic character. Expect an aroma of sweet caramel, vanilla custard, and toasted oak, often accompanied by notes of dried stone fruit like apricot, a hint of orange zest, and delicate baking spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied and exceptionally smooth for its proof, delivering rich flavors of crème brûlée, honey, and ripe dark berries. The prolonged aging imparts a profound oak influence, balanced by a subtle nuttiness and a gentle, warming spice like cinnamon or allspice. The mouthfeel is often velvety and luxurious. The finish is long, refined, and deeply satisfying, with lingering sweet oak, a touch of dark fruit, and a pleasant warmth.
Food Pairings: This well-aged and potent bourbon is perfect for contemplative sipping or pairing with substantial fare. Consider rich roasted meats such as crown roast of pork, duck confit, or a prime rib. It also complements fine aged cheeses like Parmesan Reggiano or mature Gruyere. For dessert, try it with a rich chocolate torte, a classic bread pudding, or a deep-dish apple pie with vanilla bean ice cream.
