About Old Hickory Black Label Blended Whiskey
Old Hickory Black Label Blended Whiskey is a crowd-pleasing 80 proof (40% ABV) blend produced by R.S. Lipman Company LLC, sourced primarily from MGP distillery, featuring 89% whiskey aged 4 years or older and 11% aged 2-4 years with a mashbill of 90% corn and rye plus 10% malted barley. What makes it special is its bright, spicy profile with aromas of cherry custard, pistachio gelato, almond nougat, crème brûlée, and butter cream, delivering a silky medium-to-full bodied palate of caramel, butterscotch, oak, and subtle tobacco notes at an accessible $30 for 750ml. Ideal for casual sippers, cocktail enthusiasts, and value seekers who enjoy easy-drinking blends without harsh youthfulness. In its category, it punches above its price compared to basic blended bourbons like Jim Beam White or Evan Williams, offering more nuanced dessert-like flavors and mixability akin to a 'little brother' to Michter’s American Whiskey, though some note a thinner body.
Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
Bright and inviting with prominent crème brûlée, cherry custard, almond nougat, pistachio gelato, and sweet butter cream candy notes. Subtle hints of vanilla, caramel, light tobacco, and sweet grain add pleasant depth. The aromas are chipper yet could be stronger for fuller impact.
👅 Palate
Silky medium-to-full bodied with flavors of caramel, butterscotch, oak, chocolate, and butter cream reinforced from the nose. Bright and spicy with leather, black tea, tobacco, and a brief caramel pop, though some find the mouthfeel thin. Smooth and complementary without overpowering astringency.
✨ Finish
Medium length with a slight tingle and burn, featuring mellow oak, white toffee, dried cherry, honey custard, leather, and toffee. No youthful harshness despite younger components.
