The 1933
Please Enjoy Responsibly. Bell Meade Bourbon 45.2% alc/vol ©2023 Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery, Nashville, TN.
This spirited variation on a Vieux Carre made its debut at Nelson’s annual Repeal Day celebration. The traditional cognac is replaced by Belle Meade Cognac Cask Finish Bourbon. A splash of Benedictine provides notes of spiced honey and a couple dashes of bitters tie everything together. The perfect sipper for a special occasion – or no occasion at all!
