As sweater weather approaches, Coopers’ Craft Kentucky Straight Bourbon is getting in the autumnal spirit with cocktails boasting this season’s trending fall flavors, including maple syrup, fresh fig, and, of course, pumpkin.
At 82.2ABV Coopers’ Craft has a softer, lighter flavor profile, making the bourbon extremely versatile. Coopers’ Craft is a refined toasted wood whiskey taken through a unique beech and birch finishing process for a smooth and flavorful bourbon that complements fall spices and flavors perfectly.
