Barrell Single Barrel Bourbon S1B5

Description

Barrell Craft Spirits doesn’t disappoint with their Single Barrel Bourbon S1B5. This unique expression, bottled straight from a single cask, offers a complex flavor journey that’s both bold and inviting.

The aroma is a delightful introduction, with warm baking spices like cinnamon leading the way. Hints of creamy vanilla and caramelized sugar from the charred oak barrel peek through, creating an enticing prelude to the sip. On the palate, the medium-bodied bourbon explodes with a wave of spice. Don’t be intimidated though, because balancing these fiery notes are softer flavors of vanilla bean, buttery cornbread, and toasted marshmallows. Imagine a spiced dessert with a touch of sweetness – that’s the delightful contrast this bourbon delivers.

The finish is where the magic lingers. The spice from the rye grain gently fades, leaving behind a warming sensation and hints of vanilla and brown sugar sweetness. Adding a touch of ice unlocks a hidden layer of complexity. The initial blast of spice softens, revealing notes of crisp green apple and a touch of white pepper, adding a refreshing and unexpected dimension to the flavor profile.
