Craft distilleries often have a similar base set of youthful characteristics, and Borchetta Bourbon Small Batch is no exception. The sip highlights a youthful aroma, which does the most to pull from the bourbon’s 80 proof. The rest of the sip, however, comes across as thin and short, with flavors that do appear to be faint. What is present isn’t offensive, thankfully, those who purchase a bottle will be left wanting more. Like any craft distillery, I’d be interested in revisiting what Big Machine Distillery is able to do with this bourbon after gaining a few more years under their belt.
