Calvados-Cask-Finished Bourbon

American Kentucky straight bourbon (51%+ corn, aged in new charred American oak per TTB) finished in casks that previously held Calvados (French Normandy apple brandy aged in French oak). The finish imparts baked apple, apple cider, and additional oak ellagitannins atop the bourbon's caramel-vanilla backbone. Bottled around 45-50% ABV. Examples include Heaven's Door Exploration Series 1.
