Leopold Bros 8 Year Old Cask Strength Three Chamber Finished Bourbon

Leopold Bros 8 Year Old Cask Strength Three Chamber Finished Bourbon

Leopold Bros 8 Year Old Cask Strength Three Chamber Finished Bourbon
  • Straight bourbon whiskey finished in rye whiskey casks produced by Leopold Bros in Denver, Colorado
  • Mash bill of 65% corn, 20% floor malted barley, and 15% rye
  • Open-air fermented for 7 days in cypress vats using whiskey and beer yeast
  • Double distilled in copper pot stills
  • Aged for 8 years in 53-gallon char #3 new American oak and finished in barrels that previously held Leopold Bros Three Chamber Rye
  • Flavors of candied apricot and orange marmalade are complemented by graham cracker and oily sweet grains
  • Non-chill filtered; bottled at a minimum cask strength of 55% ABV (ABV may change batch to batch)

This eight-year-old limited release bourbon is the oldest whiskey that Leopold Brothers has released to date. The location of their dunnage style warehouse ensures minimal evaporation and ABV fluctuation, but after eight years in barrel, the ABV climbed to a punchy 55%. To balance the loss of some of the sweeter bourbon notes, it was finished in ex–Three Chamber Rye Whiskey casks, amplifying the golden-toned orchard fruit notes with a kiss of oily richness from the coveted three-chamber distilled rye.
