Copper \u0026amp; Cask circumvents that danger entirely with Batch 018. The blender plunged deep into their reserves to unearth a remarkably mature nine-year-old Indiana bourbon. Then, they subjected the liquid to a bold secondary slumber in heavily charred ZAK Cooperage Wave Stave barrels. It works. The rigorous whiskey-to-wood interaction extracts a dense, brooding sweetness without allowing those astringent tannins to hijack the underlying flavor profile. At a formidable 117.4 proof, the spirit commands immediate attention rather than passively begging for it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSourced strictly from a beloved low-rye mashbill, the fundamental architecture here is deeply traditional. The prolonged primary aging occurred across both Indiana and Kentucky before geographic latitude shifts brought the heavy barrels north to Rhode Island. There, Master Blender Stephen Corrigan meticulously oversaw the precise re-barreling process, intentionally transferring the whiskey into new charred American oak to fundamentally rewrite the spirit’s trajectory. Uncut and unfiltered, it feels downright lavish. You get the raw intensity of a cask-strength bruiser. Simultaneously, that heat is elegantly tempered by the rich caramelized sugars aggressively coaxed from the fresh secondary casks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDistilled from a classic low-rye mashbill and aged for a minimum of 9 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubjected to an extensive double-oaking process in heavily charred Wave Stave casks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBottled uncut and non-chill filtered at a formidable 117.4 proof\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"LATITUDE BEVERAGE COMPANY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42776876744750,"sku":"851115009742","price":79.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0173\/0930\/files\/Square-1_5c6bad9d-0f22-4e7e-a084-e91831f9acd5.jpg?v=1791706577","url":"https:\/\/dewinespot.co\/products\/copper-cask-9-year-double-oak-bourbon-whiskey-batch-018","provider":"De Wine Spot - Rare Spirits \u0026 Curated Wine Experts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
