Bourbon Whiskey| 53.5% ABV

Commercial Description:

In it’s formative years, BBCo tapped Tennessee-made bourbon (rumored George Dickel but this has never been confirmed for either company), aged for nine years in this case, and finished them in wine barrels. Those French Oak barrels came from the Phifer Pavitt Winery of Napa Valley, and had previously been used to give Cabernet Sauvignon three years of aging. So, the finishing wood in question is very well seasoned indeed.

The BBCo crew, led by former Makers Mark Master Distiller Steve Nally, decided the whiskey was ready after 19 months in those wine casks, so the finishing period was quite long. Interestingly, the timing suggests the company started the finishing of this bourbon mere months after they started operations with their first still.
