Barrell Bourbon New Year 2024 Limited Edition 750mL

Barrell Bourbon New Year 2024 Limited Edition is an artful celebration of American craftsmanship and the spirit of new beginnings. Each year, a special blend is created to toast the year ahead, and the 2024 edition is a particularly ambitious offering, featuring an expansive selection of bourbons from across the United States.

This blend unites the rich heritage of bourbon from Kentucky, the robust character of Indiana bourbon, the smoothness of Tennessee, the boldness of Wyoming, the innovative spirit of New York, the warmth of Texas, the heartiness of Ohio, and the charm of Maryland. Aged from 5 to 15 years, each bourbon contributes to a complex and diverse flavor profile.

The derived mash bill consists of 72% corn, providing a sweet and full-bodied foundation; 22% rye, adding a touch of spice; 5% malted barley, contributing to the fermentation process and complexity; and 1% wheat, offering a subtle softness to the blend.

Bottled in Kentucky at a cask strength of 113 proof, this limited edition bourbon is a testament to the distiller's craft, presenting a bold and unadulterated whiskey experience.
