Description
Abraham Bowman Release No. 7 Port Finish 12-Year is a Bourbon from A. Smith Bowman Distillery in Fredericksburg, Virginia, bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV). The Abraham Bowman Limited Edition Collection is the distillery’s experimental, small-output line, where Virginia’s oldest continually operating distillery explores how mashbill, maturation, and finishing reshape its whiskey.
After its initial bourbon maturation, this release was finished in port barrels, drawing dark-fruit sweetness, a rounder texture, and added depth from the fortified-wine wood. Secondary-cask finishing experiments like this are central to the Limited Edition program, which uses unusual barrels to push the base whiskey in new directions.
With no published per-release tasting notes, the profile follows the distillery’s house character: this experimental bourbon leans on the warm vanilla, caramel, and toasted-oak tones that years in charred Virginia barrels dependably produce, framed by the maturity its age and warehouse time provide.
Produced in very limited quantity as part of the long-running Abraham Bowman Limited Edition Collection, this 2013 release is allocated, hard to find, and seldom seen on shelves. Each numbered entry occupies a fixed place in the series, making the collection a natural target for collectors who track the distillery’s experimental output release by release.
