This premium small-batch bourbon is bottled uncut and unfiltered, typically exceeding 125 proof. Each batch, drawn from specifically chosen barrels within the distillery’s vast inventory, possesses a unique character reflecting its specific age, proof, and warehouse location. A detailed label records this information, including the batch number, bottling date, proof, and the distiller’s signature, emphasizing the artisanal nature of the product.
Its significance lies in its embodiment of the distiller’s commitment to craftsmanship and quality. Representing a higher tier within the brand’s portfolio, it provides a taste experience that’s both robust and nuanced, appealing to connoisseurs seeking intensely flavored bourbons. Bottling directly from the barrel preserves the spirit’s full character, offering an unadulterated expression of its maturation process. This practice aligns with a historical tradition of savoring whiskey in its purest form, harking back to earlier eras of bourbon production.
