Templeton Gets Fortitude

Iowa-based Templeton Distillery has released a bourbon called Fortitude – their first non-rye whiskey product since opening six years ago in the town of Templeton, Iowa.

Templeton Fortitude is produced with a mash bill of 55% corn, 40% rye and 5% malted barley, matured in first-fill American oak barrels, bottled at 46% alcohol by volume [92 proof] and is said to contain notes of black pepper, butterscotch, caramel, citrus and vanilla.

Templeton Fortitude is being made available for $40 per bottle.
