MB Roland Straight Corn Whiskey

MB Roland’s Straight Corn whiskey is a little gem in the range.

Let’s be honest here; most people overlook Corn whiskey. MB Roland has managed to do something good with this. Lot’s of Corn whiskeys are unaged. If they were aged in new oak, they’d be Bourbon.  What MB Roland has done here is to age their own Corn whiskey in their own used Bourbon barrels which imparts some wonderful flavours into the sweet whiskey. It becomes immediately more complicated and adds a whole new dimension.

MB Roland’s process includes not adding water post distillation meaning every bit of flavour from the mash, fermentation and the barrel comes through.
