Pinhook Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Pinhook Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a Kentucky-based brand known for releasing vintage-specific bourbons and ryes, treating each release like a unique horse racing season rather than a consistent, replicable product. Founded in 2011, Pinhook Bourbon is characterized by small-batch blending, and it currently distills its own whiskey at Castle & Key Distillery, aiming to bring a fresh, high-quality take to American whiskey.

Barton 1792 Single Barrel
In order to create this unique bourbon, the finest barrels are selected and tasted from the best aging warehouses. Only those barrels deemed "exceptional" are then bottled individually, one by one. This preserves the distinct character of each barrel.

Part of the The Sazerac Company family of brands.
Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.

Nose: The single barrel's nose is carried by sweet butterscotch notes, though a bit fruitier overall, with hints of ginger and Fuji apple.
Palate: Flavors of rich butterscotch and caramel notes, delicately balanced with hints of fruit and toffee.
Finish: A sweet finish tempered with warm bitter cloves.
