Hot Box Toasted Barrel (1 of 2)

Distilled and aged for over 16 years in charred white oak barrels treated with an innovative hot box and air-dried process, the whiskey reveals a complex profile. The hot box method involves steaming the staves at 300°F to infuse deep, rich flavors into the wood, resulting in a well-balanced spirit. Expect enticing fruity notes complemented by layers of caramel and a bittersweet chocolate finish. Bottled at 45% ABV and chill filtered for clarity, this 375ml bottle is a rare expression showcasing meticulous attention to detail. The bottle condition is pristine. Enjoy responsibly.
