Russell's Reserve Single Barrel Bourbon
Russell's Reserve Small Batch Single Barrel Bourbon is made in Kentucky using a generations-old mash recipe. After the grains are harvested, they are mashed and fermented before being distilled to a lower proof than at other distilleries in Kentucky (meaning that less water is used in diluting the bourbon after it is matured). Matured in heavily charred casks under the intense Kentucky sun, this single-cask bourbon is made by a master distiller with over 50 years of distilling experience.

Part of the Campari Group 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: Vanilla, nuts, brown sugar with notes of oak and cinnamon.
Palate: Spicy, bold, and deeply complex with creamy toffee, licorice, and vanilla.
Finish: Sweet spice and malty notes.

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.
