Description

We don’t know much about Frank August but we do know that each batch is blended with no more than 10-15 barrels, and comes in a container that’s described as being “intentionally crafted to function as a beautiful decanter. Along with a heavy-weight brass closure, discrete precious metal gold decoration, and a clear back label that peels away effortlessly, leaving zero residue. The CEO and co-founder is Johnathan Crocker who comes from a marketing background. A minimalist bottle design, custom-made too, as the brand puts it, reflect its “philosophy of modernity and belief that less is more”. “America’s Spirit. Be Frank.”

Taste

Frank August, sourced from an unnamed Kentucky distiller, is bottled at 100 proof

Brand Tasting Notes: A rich auburn with full legs that beautifully coats the glass. Frank August’s Small Batch Kentucky Straight Bourbon opens with hints of caramel and vanilla that are balanced with warm oak and mild baking spices which warm the senses. The palate echoes those initial sweet caramel and vanilla notes on the front of your tongue, with cinnamon and rye bread spices coming forward, as it gradually transitions to the back of your tongue. At 100 proof, it is a perfect balance of heat and smoothness that warms your mouth, while hints of brown and malt sugars begin to present themselves. As flavors of vanilla, oak, and baking spices transition through all senses, it leaves a medium–long finish, wanting you to pour another glass.
