Barrell Foundation Double Barrel 5 Year Blended Bourbon

Barrell Foundation Double Barrel Bourbon: A Masterclass in Blending and Aging

Discover the art of blending with the Barrell Foundation Double Barrel Bourbon, a cornerstone of the celebrated Barrell Craft Spirits portfolio. As your preferred partner for innovative spirits, Nestor Liquor is proud to feature this exceptional bourbon, which showcases the brand's meticulous blending expertise in an approachable and flavorful 100-proof expression.

This bourbon is a complex blend of straight bourbons sourced from four different states: Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, and Maryland. While the bottle carries a 5-year age statement, the blend itself contains whiskeys aged 5, 6, 8, and 9 years. This intricate blend, built on a derived mashbill of 73% corn, 23% rye, and 4% malted barley, creates a rich, full-flavored foundation.

The "Double Barrel" process takes it a step further. The bourbon undergoes a secondary maturation in new, toasted American oak casks (rather than charred), a process that enhances the whiskey's profile without overpowering it. This finishing step amplifies notes of dark chocolate, dried fruit, and toasted marshmallow, adding a velvety richness to the spirit.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: A luscious aroma of caramel and milk chocolate, complemented by baked apples, pumpkin spice, and a hint of orange peel.

• Palate: The entry is warm, creamy, and complex. Flavors of orange sponge cake, light-roasted coffee, and rich caramel lead, evolving into notes of cinnamon, dark chocolate, and toasted marshmallow.

• Finish: A smooth and lingering finish with persistent notes of vanilla, warm cinnamon, toasted walnuts, and a flicker of orange zest.

Bottled at a perfect 100 proof (50% ABV), the Barrell Foundation Double Barrel is a versatile, full-bodied bourbon that is perfect for enjoying neat, over ice, or as the sophisticated base of your favorite cocktail.
