Flavor Profile Differences

Sweetness is where these two part ways.

  • Bulleit Bourbon 10 Year: The older version of Bulleit's high-rye bourbon. Ten years add a lot of oak and leather to the usual rye spice, and the finish turns dry and woody.
  • Jefferson's Tropics Aged in Humidity: Jefferson's sent barrels to the Singapore jungle for a year and a half, and the humidity shows. It is creamy and fruit-heavy, with tobacco, leather and baking spice running underneath.

Which One Should You Choose?

  • Go with Bulleit Bourbon 10 Year if you want an oak-forward, ten-year high-rye bourbon at a gentle proof at a significantly lower price point and without hunting for it.
  • Go with Jefferson's Tropics Aged in Humidity if you want an unusual, tropical-aged bourbon with creamy fruit and tobacco with more proof behind it.
