Mythology 'Hell Bear' American Blended Whiskey: A Spirit of Adventure and Craft
Unleashing the Spirit of the Wild
Mythology 'Hell Bear' American Blended Whiskey embodies the spirit of adventure that drives the heart of Mythology Distillery. Inspired by the journeys that shape our lives, this Whiskey is a testament to the wild, untamed essence of the American spirit, captured in a bottle that invites you to discover your spirit animal.
Craftsmanship and Heritage
Rooted in Denver, Colorado, Mythology Distillery combines Whiskey's art with a philosophy centered on the personal mythologies we create through travel, connection, and experiences. The 'Hell Bear' American Whiskey is a bold expression of this ethos, blending straight rye whiskey with 4-year and 5-year bourbons, each contributing its unique character to a symphony of flavors.
Blend Specs: A Harmony of Distinct Characters
The 'Hell Bear' blend is meticulously crafted from:
- 2 to 3yr Rye: 95% Rye, 5% Malted Barley
- 4yr Bourbon: 60% Corn, 36% Rye, 4% Malted Barley
- 5yr Bourbon: 68% Corn, 20% Wheat, 12% Malted Barley
This combination results in a 90-proof (45% ALC BY VOL) whiskey that balances the boldness of rye spice with the smoothness of bourbon, offering hints of berries, cinnamon spice, and a sweet cereal grain finish, all enveloped in a vanilla and baking spice warmth.
Sensory Journey: From Nose to Finish
- Nose: The journey begins with rye spice, sweet Corn, and muted vanilla, leading into fresh oak and a hint of light peach crumble, offering a welcoming introduction.
- Palate: A dance of muted vanilla and light caramel with white peppercorn and faint summer fruits creates a light yet complex experience.
- Finish: A surprising amount of lingering heat accompanies the rye spice and white peppercorn, concluding with light oak and leather notes.
