Luxco releases Ezra Brooks 99 7th January, 2021 by Nicola Carruthers
American spirits producer Luxco has expanded its Ezra Brooks whiskey range with the launch of a higher-ABV Bourbon.
The new Ezra Brooks 99 is a higher-ABV version of the brand’s core variant
The latest addition to the range is Ezra Brooks 99, a Kentucky straight Bourbon whiskey bottled at 49.5% ABV. The flagship Ezra Brooks Bourbon is bottled at 45% ABV.
The expression has been charcoal filtered and features the brand’s signature ‘spicy, rye Bourbon mash bill taste’, which has been ‘enhanced’ by the higher ABV.
“With Ezra Brooks 99 our goal was to create a higher-proof Bourbon without sacrificing the rich notes Ezra Brooks is known for,” said John Rempe, master distiller at Lux Row Distillers. “And we achieved that with 99. The result is a smooth, drinkable Bourbon with hints of caramel, vanilla, chocolate and spice.”
