ABOUT

Barrell Bourbon Batch 035 is a blend of 6, 7, 8, and 13-year-old bourbons. A multi-mashbill blend of 6 and 7-year-old spicy and earthy, high-rye, high-proof, oak forward barrels was combined with a blend of 8-year-old softer, lower-proof barrels with concentrated notes of dark cherry and butterscotch. After mingling for two months, 13-year-old barrels with dominant fruit flavors were layered in. A portion of these barrels had more tropical fruit notes and the other portion showed more dried and candied fruit notes. The resulting bourbon is peppery and intriguing on the nose, and sweet and long on the finish.

Banana bread on the nose is complemented by a myriad of herbaceous aromas from the rye grain. An earthiness intensifies on the palate. Bold spice settles down to rich, sweet notes of chocolate milkshake and a frosted cinnamon bun. Water completely transforms the whiskey into a punch bowl of fresh and tropical fruits

TASTING NOTES

Batch 035:

NOSE: Jammy and cooked fruits leap out first such as lemon curd, cherry, and banana bread. That well-spiced character of the banana bread continues as woodsy notes emerge, with birch beer leading into tiramisu. The rye in the mashbill is particularly bold, bringing olive and thyme. Once the nose settles down a bit it reveals deeper aromas of cocoa butter and molasses.

PALATE: Mexican hot chocolate, cinnamon, and dried chili peppers make a spicy first impression. There's a freshness to it with grapefruit peel and absinthe. There's also an intense earthiness of pinecone and baking chocolate. As you roll the sip around your mouth, it grows much richer and creamier, developing into eggnog and tahini.

FINISH: Lime zest and amaretto, and some grated coconut; rye spice takes over as slate, fennel, and cola notes linger.
