About Murray Hill Bourbon
Murray Hill Club is the celebrated blend from Jos. A. Magnus & Co., a brand that traces its name back to Joseph Magnus, a distiller whose pre-Prohibition bourbon was a sought-after spirit more than a century ago. The modern Magnus team revived that heritage, and Murray Hill is their tribute to it, an artful marriage of well-aged whiskeys. This particular release brings together 9, 11, and 18 year old bourbons, the kind of careful blending of mature barrels that makes a bottle genuinely limited and worth seeking out. It is a fitting addition to a quiet evening in our Eastside lounge.
Tasting Notes
A blend built on older barrels like this leans rich and layered. Expect the deep caramel, butterscotch, and vanilla you get from long aging, with warm baking spice and a soft, toasted, lingering finish. It is a sipper to savor slowly rather than rush.
What to Pair It With
This is a bourbon to enjoy neat or over a single large cube so its age and depth can shine. It is wonderful after dinner in our 21+ lounge, and pairs naturally with the American Wagyu steaks or the Truffle Deviled Eggs from the Sparrow dinner menu. Given its limited nature, this is one to treat yourself to rather than a happy-hour well pour.
