Jos. A. Magnus & Co. 10 Year Single Barrel Straight Bourbon Whiskey

Single-barrel bourbon rarely feels this focused. Jos. A. Magnus & Co. Single Barrel Straight Bourbon is a decade-old high-rye bourbon, bottled at cask strength from tight-grain Seguin Moreau barrels. It comes from the revived Private Cask Program, built on a 60/36/4 mashbill that leans into spice, structure, and detailed oak influence. Proof varies by barrel and typically lands in the mid-100s, so every bottle carries its own slightly different accent.

NOSE: Honey, banana, caramel

PALATE: Mid-weight with ripe fruits

FINISH: Dried apple, white pepper

Big, cask-strength bourbon thrives beside richly marbled meat. Pair it with reverse-seared ribeye, grilled lamb chops, or smoked short ribs; the caramel, spice, and oak slip straight into char and fat.

Comfort dishes make a natural companion. Think bourbon-glazed pork loin, duck with cherry reduction, or maple-roasted root vegetables, where brown sugar, fruit, and baking spice find familiar echoes.

On a board, reach for aged Gouda, clothbound cheddar, and nutty Comté with toasted pecans and dark chocolate.

For dessert, try pecan pie, chocolate torte, or orange-almond cake to mirror the bourbon’s mix of nuts, cocoa, citrus, and warm sweetness.
