Blue Note Launches Limited Release Honey Bourbon Cask
Blue Note Bourbon has announced the launch of a limited release Honey Bourbon Cask.
To create Blue Note Honey Bourbon Cask, American oak barrels used for finishing were repurposed to produce a locally sourced, barrel-aged honey. The team then finished a Straight Bourbon Whiskey, which was distilled from a mash bill of 70% rye, 21% rye, and 9% malted barley and aged for a minimum of three years, in the honey-infused casks, before bottling at 115.7 proof (57.85% ABV).
Blue Note Honey Bourbon Cask is described as having aromas of “vanilla, cedar, and nut.” The palate exhibits notes of “leather, pear, cedar, wildflower, and honey.” It concludes with “lingering hints of wildflower and honey.”
Blue Note Honey Bourbon Cask is limited to approximately 3,500 bottles and is now available for purchase online at bluenotebourbon.com and seelbachs.com. It’s also available at retailers in CT, FL, GA, KS, MO,TN, and TX for a suggested retail price of $64.99 for a 750 mL bottle.
