Each Single Barrel is a true Single Barrel: Bottled at cask strength without combining it with any other barrels. The most authentic expression we offer.
Brian Schmidt, Topflight Panel Member:
Barrell sources amazing whiskey from around the world, often blending different types together before unique cask finishings to achieve the best possible whiskey. Occasionally they come across single barrels that are so exceptional, so unique that they bottle just that one barrel. In this case we have an 8-year-old bourbon from Indiana that fits the bill. Clocking in at a barrel proof of just 106.8, this bourbon comes in hotter than expected in a fun, spicy way. The spice gives way to fruit and caramel notes evolving with each sip, followed by a long and pleasant finish with rolling flavors of baking spices and cardamom, oak, and cashews. Adding some ice, I get a bit more of the fruit notes with green apple and white pepper becoming more pronounced. This bottle won't last long on a bourbon lover's shelf.
