Mascota Bourbon Whiskey
Mascota Bourbon Whiskey is Kentucky straight bourbon in one of the most unusual decanters ever crafted: a hand-painted, hand-decorated porcelain bulldog — "Big Mac," also known as "Puppy Van Winkle" — the first bourbon offering in the Mascota collection, aged 5 years and bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV) in this 750mL decanter — and it is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor, San Diego, CA.
Mascota has never offered a standard-bottle bourbon — every Mascota bourbon release is a handcrafted bulldog decanter. This flagship "Big Mac" wears AKC bulldog coloring and is the first in the line to carry metal spikes on its collar, and it ships in a green-roof "doghouse" box. It's named in honor of the founder's family bulldog, Big Mac. A portion of profits is donated to animal shelters and rescue centers.
Tasting notes (brand copy): rich, unfiltered deep amber in color; sweet vanilla and charred oak on the nose; caramel and vanilla leading to oak, cinnamon, and blood orange with a palate-coating mouthfeel; a long, sweet finish of oak spices, toffee, and dark fruits.
Why buy Mascota Bourbon? Because the decanter is the point — a hand-painted porcelain bulldog holding 5-year, 100-proof Kentucky straight bourbon is a gift and a conversation piece that happens to pour well. Browse the bourbon whiskey collection, more from the Mascota brand collection, and other collectible whisky decanters.
Serving note: decant into a glass and enjoy neat or on a large cube; keep the bulldog on the shelf long after the bourbon is gone.
