Platinum - 2020 Best of the Northwest

Rich, luscious, and possessing a seemingly endless depth of flavor, Chambers Bay’s 100-proof Captains’ Reserve Bottled-In-Bond Bourbon has spent a minimum five years in a boathouse aging facility, osmosing the salty maritime air of Puget Sound. In a glass it exhales that brine, which is paired sip by sip with warming oak and a hint of apricot jam.

“Comforting aromas of fresh-brewed espresso, roasted pecans, warm arepas, chocolate-covered peanuts, Italian hot cocoa, mint chocolate, and hints of black cherry and grape. There’s a rich, tactile boldness on the palette, with flavors of cinnamon, peppermint, black pepper, cigar wrapper, barrel char, and lots of high-quality dark chocolate. The full finish has more dark chocolate, charred oak, spiced coffee bean, and hints of cigar.

“This is the oldest release yet from Chambers Bay – a 5-year-old Bottled in Bond Bourbon matured on Washington’s Puget Sound. Not on the “shores of Puget Sound,” but actually on the Sound in a floating boathouse converted into a rickhouse. The nose has notes of toasted caramel, vanilla, dark chocolate, honey, and a soft oakiness. The taste has a good balance of oak, honey, toasted caramel, and touches of peppercorns and allspice. The finish is medium-length with a good balance of honey, oak, and caramel.”
