Flavor Profile Differences
Oak is doing most of the differentiating here.
- Copper & Cask Small Batch Series #014 8 Year Double Oak: Eight-year MGP bourbon given a second stint in toasted barrels. It is dense and dessert-like, with molasses, dark chocolate and coffee over heavy oak at well over 120 proof.
- Noah's Mill: A high-proof Willett blend with a lot of nutty and fruity character. Peanut, golden raisin and jam make it taste like peanut butter and jelly, and it finishes very dry.
Which One Should You Choose?
- Go with Copper & Cask Small Batch Series #014 8 Year Double Oak if you want a dense, double-oaked, dessert-like bourbon at high proof.
- Go with Noah's Mill if you want a high-proof, nutty, jammy Willett bourbon with a bone-dry finish at a slightly lower price point and without hunting for it.
