9 Year Old Hand Selected Barrel image
George Dickel 9 Year Old Hand Selected Barrel
George Dickel Hand Selected is their private barrel program. The sour-mash whiskey employs the Lincoln County Process, which is a type of charcoal filtering that is typical of Tennessee whiskey. This expression was aged for 9 years, then bottled at 103 proof, making for an exceptionally well-balanced single-barrel whiskey.

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.
Tasting Notes
Nose: The nose opens with floral, honey, vanilla, and citrus notes, as well as some prominent oak.
Palate: There's a pleasant sweetness on the palate with fruity, vanilla, and oak spice notes.
Finish: Finishes with lingering oak, and sweet notes, as well as a slight warmth.

Belle Meade Sherry Cask Finished
Belle Meade Bourbon Sherry Cask Finish, our first release in the Special Cask Finish Series, represents the best of both old and new world whiskey making techniques as it's America's native spirit, Bourbon, that we have blended and finished like a fine Scotch. We sample and select barrels of Bourbon from our Reserve stock and blend only the best in extremely small batches to create a Whiskey of exceptional character. We then finish this extraordinary blend in Oloroso Sherry casks imported from Spain until perfection is achieved. The final results are, to say the least, remarkable. Rich, intricate, and balanced, this Bourbon is one for the ages. There has never been a Bourbon like it and there will likely never be another.
