PM Spirits just resurrected a ghost. The Old Hoffman name carries immense weight in Lawrenceburg, directly tied to the Van Winkle legacy, as Julian III used the shuttered site for his own bottling runs in the early 1980s. Now, it's returning via a meticulously crafted double-oaked Kentucky straight bourbon. Six years of primary maturation lay a robust, corn-heavy foundation—clocking in at a unique high-malt mashbill. The secondary aging process forces the spirit deep into a freshly toasted and charred barrel. Wood sugars explode on contact. The result completely sidesteps the typical over-oaked bitterness often associated with heavy barrel finishes. It absolutely commands your attention.
Secondary maturation remains notoriously unforgiving. Leave the whiskey in the second barrel a week too long, and you extract astringent tannins that absolutely devastate the structural integrity of the entire batch. PM Spirits avoids this trap entirely. The secondary char layers dense, dark caramel and roasted espresso notes right over the baseline vanilla profile of the six-year distillate. It drinks with a muscular texture, coats the glass, and won't let go. High malt content in the mashbill provides an earthy backbone, grounding the immense sweetness generated by the double-barrel impact. Every sip reveals subtle complexity.
