Patton Road Reserve 5 year

J. Henry & Sons Patton Road Reserve is a cask-strength bourbon that reflects Wisconsin craftsmanship. Bottled at 118 proof, this 5-year-old bourbon uses heirloom red corn developed in the 1930s, delivering a unique flavor profile shaped by Wisconsin's extreme weather. Produced and bottled by Henry Farms Prairie Spirits, it’s unclear if it’s distilled in-house. This review is based on Batch B115, Bottle 98, revisited after several years of opening. Proof: 118 Age: 5 years Origin: Wisconsin, produced by Henry Farms Prairie Spirits, Dane, WI Price: $80 (Purchased from Binny’s in Chicago, Summer 2018) Tasting Format: Sampled in a Glencairn glass, rested 10 minutes Production Insights This bourbon’s standout flavor comes from heirloom red corn and aging in Wisconsin’s extreme temperature swings, which enhance barrel interaction. Consultant Nancy Fraley’s expertise adds polish to the product. Alongside the Patton Road Reserve, J. Henry & Sons offers other innovative options like the Bellefontaine Reserve (Cognac-finished) and La Flamme Reserve (Armagnac-finished).
