Bourbon, 'Cask Finish Series - PX Sherry'
- Limited release blend of straight bourbon whiskeys sourced, blended, finished, and bottled by Barrell Craft Spirits in Louisville, Kentucky
- Part of the Barrell Craft Spirits Cask Finish Series
- Composed of a selection of straight bourbon whiskeys distilled and aged in Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee
- Aged a minimum 6 years with whiskeys up to 15 years old in the blend
- Derived mash bill of 80% corn, 16% rye, and 4% malted barley
- Final blend of component whiskies is further aged for 1–1.5 years in first-fill Pedro Ximénez sherry casks in Kentucky
- Cake abounds: caramel pound cake, lemon poppy seed, and banana bread complemented by notes of raisin and pleasant distractions of pipe tobacco, cinnamon, tangerine, and cedar. The sherry mingles rather than dominates—malt drinkers take note.
- No added coloring
- Non-chill filtered; bottled at a cask strength of 57.76% ABV
“In crafting a harmonious counterpart, the BCS team meticulously blended select straight bourbon whiskeys to enhance and complement the sumptuous flavor derived from the PX barrels. The result is a rich, full-bodied bourbon with layers of toasted coffee, golden honey, and candied fruit, offering a sophisticated balance of depth and sweetness.” —Barrell Craft Spirits

"Blended from eight whiskies aged 6-15 years sourced from Kentucky, Indiana, and Tennessee, this shows raisins, prunes, and other dried fruits on the nose, with cinnamon sugar, mulling spices, and candied apple in support. The flavors evolve from sweet to dry, leading with vanilla, berries, and orange candies, then more dried fruit and toasted oak on the back palate. The finish is long and peppery, with frosted cinnamon-roll sweetness."
