2017 Distilled Competition Award Winners
Best of Show:
Devil’s Share Bourbon Whiskey
Cutwater Spirits
A wickedly smooth take on a classic American spirit. This award winning Devil’s Share Bourbon Whiskey is a celebration of history and a study in authenticity. The distillers at Cutwater Spirits select only the heart of each small batch and age their bourbon in virgin, heavily charred American oak barrels.
The result is an exceptionally refined spirit rich with aromas of cinnamon, tobacco, oak and vanilla. Its robust, earthy flavor carries hints of caramel and vanilla cream to a lingering spicy finish. This bourbon is not defined by geography, but by taste.
