Frank August Single Barrel Barrel No. 5 – A Knockout score
Cherry| Concord grape| Nectarine| Olive oil| Herbal| Cinnamon oak| Delicate, but still expressive
Raspberry| Oak| Dried fig| Roasted chestnuts
Black cherry| Cranberry| Pepper| Cocoa powder| Very mild dryness| Potent heat & spice
Frank August’s new Single Barrel release is striking for its resemblance to their small batch release. Not because of the taste, but rather the same high-concept minimalist bottle design. But this isn’t small batch. After CEO and Co-Founder Johnathan Crocker selected 10 of his favorite barrels, he enlisted an “collective expertise of some of the industry’s most respected master distillers and master blenders” to select the five winning barrels and single them out for each unique release.
Nose
The delicate yet expressive aroma of cherry, concord grape, nectarine, olive oil, herbal, and cinnamon oak should make a lasting impact.
Palate
There’s an oily mouthfeel with just the right amount of flavor – raspberry, oak, dried fig, and roasted chestnut.
Finish
The finish is complex with black cherry, cranberry, pepper, cocoa powder, and a very mild dryness, with just enough heat and spice.
Overall
An uncommon pairing of flavors turns Frank August Single Barrel Barrel No. 5 into a knockout. It’s delicate and sophisticated, knowing what it is and accomplishing it with precision. Frank August is two for two!
