Barrell Craft Spirits Dovetail (Limited Edition - Gray Label)

Barrell Craft Spirits Dovetail Limited Edition  Gray Label Barrell Craft Spirits
  • Premium blend of whiskies finished in rum, port, and Dunn Vineyards cabernet barrels; blended and bottled by Barrel Craft Spirits in Louisville, Kentucky
  • Distilled in Indiana, Tennessee, and Canada, and aged in the US and Canada
  • Non-age statement; blend contains whiskeys aged 11–20 years
  • The nose leads with green apple, gooseberry, and cranberry with savory walnut, sesame, and leather under the sharper fruit aromas; a robust palate highlights strawberry rhubarb pie, caramel custard, and coconut with herbaceous shiso and fennel; a burst of licorice and molasses on the finish gives way to black tea and bergamot
  • Non-chill filtered; bottled at a cask strength of 65.77% ABV

Dovetail Gray Label sees Barrell’s acclaimed Dovetail finish applied to an even older and more refined stock of whiskies than its award-winning standard expression, resulting in a whiskey brimming with a deep, brooding complexity that is simultaneously comforting and rousing.

"This is a blend of whiskeys distilled in Indiana, Tennessee and Canada, finished in barrels that previously held blackstrap rum, port and Dunn Vineyards cabernet. Predictably, this is a complex, flavorful whiskey, resounding with ginger, lemon peel, brown sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and clove. Bottled above 130 proof, plan to add lots of water and/or ice to bring to a palatable proof. Note: Gray Label uses older and more rare barrels compared to the standard Dovetail. Limited edition. —Kara Newman"
