Guero has been aged for 17 years and boasts a complex flavor profile, characterized by a rich blend of caramel, exotic baking spices, and deep vanilla notes, all derived from its extended barrel aging. This bourbon is quite robust, with a proof of 108. The mash bill for this bourbon comprises 84% corn, 8% rye, and 8% malted barley, indicating a high corn content that likely contributes to its rich and sweet flavor profile.
The bourbon is described as unfiltered and uncut, suggesting that it retains a lot of its original flavors and characteristics from the distillation and aging process. It has been distilled in small batches at Savage & Cooke's distillery in Colorado and then matured in American oak casks. The production of Guero 17 Year Bourbon is ultra-rare, with only 900 cases produced, making it a coveted item for whiskey collectors and enthusiasts.
The name "Guero" itself has a personal significance to Dave Phinney, the founder of Savage & Cooke. It was the nickname given to him during his first harvest job, where he worked on an all-Mexican crew and was the only light-skinned ("Guero" in Spanish) member.
Given its limited production and unique characteristics, the Guero 17 Year Bourbon is not just a drink but a collector's item and a piece of the distillery's history.
