Description: Barrell Bourbon Batch 011 is the culmination of a 2 year long barrel sorting project focused on highlighting a particularly rare and bright flavor note found in only select barrels of Bourbon. The base of this blend is 6-year-old barrels but it contains older barrels as well.
Appearance: Clear edges with gossamer legs meld into a golden honey with a veneer of rose gold and terra cotta.
Nose: Piping hot cornmeal Hush Puppies liberally sprinkled with confectioners’ sugar. Notes of Cavendish tobacco and bourbon barrels give way to a lush cherry preserves aroma.
Palate: A sharp burst of corn soufflé dissipates into honey graham cracker crusted pecan pie tartlets. The 114.8 proof provides for a multi-minute finish of hot stone fruit crumble.
Finish: Hot puff pastry filled with stovetop griddled bacon and a touch of dry Burgundy mustard.
