Orphan Barrel Indigo's Hour 18 Year Old Straight Bourbon Whiskey

The Orphan Barrel Whiskey Distilling Co. has unveiled its next release: Orphan Barrel Indigo's Hour.

Orphan Barrel's Indigo's Hour is an 18-year-old bourbon featuring a high-rye mash bill. This limited edition, one-time-only batch release offers a profound depth of flavor influenced by its extended aging process in new, charred white oak barrels. It's a collector's item for bourbon enthusiasts, presenting a complex profile typical of Orphan Barrel releases.

Distilled at MGP, aged at Stitzel-Weller, and bottled at Cascade Hollow. (Yes, it is NOT Dickel)

Nose: The aroma is welcoming with creamy vanilla and toasted oak upfront, complemented by baking spices and hints of red fruit.

Palate: On tasting, it delivers smooth caramel and honey with rich vanilla and layers of spice, creating a well-rounded profile.

Finish: The experience concludes with a velvety and oaky finish, leaving a lasting impression.

Indigo's Hour pairs beautifully with robust foods such as grilled steaks, smoked brisket, or rich chocolate desserts. Its depth and complexity can also complement the simplicity of a charcuterie board featuring aged cheeses and cured meats.
