Barrell Craft Spirits 11 Year Full Proof Bourbon

Barrell Craft Spirits 11 Year Full Proof Bourbon is a meticulously blended expression born from the finest barrels sourced across Kentucky, Indiana, and Tennessee. Aged between 11 to 20 years and bottled at a bold 123 proof in Kentucky, this limited release combines the depth of older whiskey with the vibrancy of well-aged grain. Its complexity and high proof earned it top honors as Robb Report’s Best of the Best in 2024.

The aroma unfolds with bold notes of oak, raisins, and roasted peanuts before shifting into layers of tobacco, peppercorn, and grilled mushroom. On the palate, expect a luxurious texture that blends dark chocolate, coffee, hazelnut latte, and hints of smoky bacon, all rounded by earthy sherry tones and warm cola. The finish brings an unexpected turn toward fruit with purple plum and apple cider, touched by peppermint, sage, and faint cigar ash.

Enjoyed neat, this bourbon presents a burnt sienna hue and a full-bodied, oily mouthfeel, ideal for slow sipping. Adding a few drops of spring water transforms its character, revealing bakery-fresh aromas of brownie batter and tres leches cake, while the palate turns savory with spice-forward depth. This is a bourbon crafted for connoisseurs who appreciate high-proof elegance layered with complexity.
