Mayor Pingree Red Label Bourbon Whiskey Batch Series Bosco Receives 91 Points from Whisky Advocate

Ferndale, MI— Valentine Distilling Co. has received 91 points from Whisky Advocate, Winter 2023 issue, for its Mayor Pingree Red Label Bourbon Whiskey Batch Series Bosco. 

According to the Whisky Advocate notes, “With apple turnovers, pecan pie and sweet corn on the nose, this whiskey is a perfect fall sipper.”

Bosco was released into the Mayor Pingree Red Label Batch Series in late summer 2023 with a barrel composition of 52% 6-year and 48% 5-year at a retail price of $50. Following the release of Alina, which debuted in mid-summer 2023, Bosco was created to highlight the time dedicated to each batch of Mayor Pingree Bourbon – narrowing down hundreds of  barrels to make the final selection  for each batch. 

“Beyond the autumnal notes, this limited edition is rich and chocolaty, with hints of cigar box and honey. On the palate, sweet and spicy flavors spar, with blueberry pierogies, pepper, and cream soda all standing on their own. The finish returns to fall with apple cider, cinnamon spice, and a sweet nuttiness,” SE, Whisky Advocate. 

Mayor Pingree Bourbon Whiskey by Valentine Distilling Co. truly makes a strong, brand name for itself as a quality product at an affordable price as it scores in the 90 point range against other bottles that soar to nearly $300. Further proving the legacy in which it represents, Hazen S. Pingree, mayor of Detroit (1890-1897), Pingree was considered one of the greatest mayors in United States history, serving as a champion for Detroiters and standing against monopolies and corruption.
