Title:
Barrell Bourbon 12 yr finished in French Oak Casks
Description:
Barrell Bourbon 12 Year Finished in French Oak Casks is a limited edition cask strength release composed of bourbons aged 12 to 15 years finished in French oak barrels for 3 to 36 months, depending on the component. The bourbons originate from four different states with mashbills that include corn, rye, wheat, and malted barley, however the derived mashbill is not disclosed.
Barrell Craft Spirits has released many finished whiskeys over the years, but this is their first French oak focused release. The company chose a high aged blend of bourbons for the base, and combined with their French oak finishing process the oak really comes through. The overall flavor profile leans more into its savory side, with leather, toffee, clove, and nutmeg complementing the oak base. The bourbon is rich, most notably at the midpoint, and there are ample sweet flavors as well, with vanilla custard and caramel on the nose, crème brûlée, toffee, and brown sugar coming into form on the palate and finish. This whiskey is softer and more layered than a typical Barrell Bourbon batch.
Sourced from undisclosed distilleries in Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, and Wyoming. Released September 2025 Proof: 108.5 Age: 12 Years Mashbill: Undisclosed blend of corn, rye, wheat, and malted barley. SRP: $159
