The Whiskey Gentry of the New World.

In Ohio, there’s a town called Newtown that was quite unassuming until now. For a couple of years, the town’s been making an excellent double-gold double-oak Bourbon named Noble Oak. Noble Oak is a quality crafted American Whiskey brand that also has a heart — each bottle sold plants a tree.

And why is this particular Spirit so special? Well, first it spends at least twelve months in charred new American white oak barrels, earning its sweet vanilla character. Its makers use time-honored methods of maturation to create an unrivaled Bourbon with body, deep color, and richness of flavor. Then, Spanish Sherry oak staves are added, and voila: a noble Bourbon is born. Experts say it’s superb, aromatic and pleasing, but we think they are forgetting a couple of adjectives: exciting, and a bit exotic.
