Unlike Bourbon or Rye, which, by definition, must be aged in new oak barrels, our US★1 Unblended American Whiskey is aged in a way that utilizes whiskey-soaked barrels to achieve a rich and unique flavor profile. In late 2013, then Master Distiller Willie Pratt agreed to re-release our US★1 Unblended American Whiskey after a nearly three-year absence from the market, deeming it “just right” and “the best it’s ever been.” Crucially, our US★1 Unblended American Whiskey never contains grain neutral spirits – hence its “unblended” distinction. Profile: Whiskey-soaked American white oak barrels, first use and second use. Deep butterscotch and vanilla notes, hints of caramel and dried fruit with ripened fruit finish. 83.4 Proof
