- Blend contains five different and individually matured mash bills
- Non-age statement; rested in 36-month-air-dried ex-Gray Label Bourbon barrels
- The nose leads with a buffet of banana pudding, pecan pie, peach cobbler, and strawberry cheesecake with undertones of cinnamon and tropical fruit; a creamy palate highlights fruit and minerality with cantaloupe, watermelon, celery salt, and alpine breeze; Meyer lemon and rose on the finish give way to black tea and chardonnay
- Non-chill filtered; bottled at a cask strength of 50.29% ABV
Barrell Craft Spirits’ 2022 Gray Label Bourbon is the result of five years of gradual, labor-intensive blending methods and techniques that celebrate the complexity and density of well-aged casks. Resting the blend in barrels composed of air-dried staves which previously held Gray Label Bourbon not only draws a through line across the range but imparts the influence of higher proof bourbon onto a lower proof blend.

Tasting Notes
The 2022 edition of BCS Gray Label Bourbon is composed of straight bourbons distilled in Indiana, Tennessee, and Kentucky blended and bottled by Barrell Craft Spirits in Louisville, Kentucky. This non-age statement whiskey contains five individually matured mash bills which were incrementally blended before being married in 36-month-air-dried ex-Gray Label Bourbon barrels. The nose leads with a buffet of banana pudding, pecan pie, peach cobbler, and strawberry cheesecake with undertones of cinnamon and tropical fruit. A creamy palate highlights fruit and minerality with cantaloupe, watermelon, celery salt, and alpine breeze. Meyer lemon and rose on the finish give way to black tea and chardonnay.
Barrell Craft Spirits’ 2022 Gray Label Bourbon is a culmination of five years of gradual, labor-intensive blending methods and techniques that celebrate the complexity and density of well-aged casks. Resting the blend in barrels composed of air-dried staves which previously held Gray Label Bourbon not only draws a through line across the premium range but imparts the influence of higher proof bourbon onto a lower proof blend.
