About this item

Barrell Craft Spirits Bourbon Batch #38 is a cask-strength blend of straight bourbons sourced from Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, and Maryland. Bottled at 55.69% ABV (111.38 proof), this limited release showcases a derived mash bill of 79% corn, 17% rye, and 4% malted barley. The nose opens with fresh apple, tart berries, lemon jelly, and black cherry, leading into layers of kiwi, mango, and elegant oak. Rich and complex on the palate, notes of confetti cake, honey wine, cinnamon buns, crème brûlée, milk chocolate, pecan, and candied lemon peel unfold with remarkable depth. A long finish reveals grilled peach, peppery spice, and toasted oak. Best enjoyed neat to appreciate its evolving character, though a splash of water can unlock additional sweetness and fruit, making this a standout bourbon for collectors and cask-strength enthusiasts alike.
