Barrell Craft Spirits Launches Barrell New Year Bourbon 2025
Barrell Craft Spirits has announced the launch of Barrell New Year Bourbon 2025.
Barrell New Year Bourbon 2025 is a blend of straight bourbon whiskeys distilled in KY, IN, TN, WY, NY, TX, OH, and MD, aged for between 5 and 15 years, with a derived mash bill of 75% corn, 20%, rye, 4% malted barley, and 1% wheat.
Official tasting notes for Barrell New Year Bourbon 2025 follow:
Nose: Undertones of chamomile tea and a squeeze of lemon, followed by chardonnay and pear. Dried pineapple nods toward a hidden tropical depth. A richness is revealed by notes of beeswax, wheat cracker and white chocolate. There’s a vibrant piquancy that conjures ginger ale as well as just a hint of minerality.
Palate: A whole host of herbs typical of alpine liqueurs, notably thyme, lemon balm, and peppermint. Juicy notes of Meyer lemon and key lime pie recall the citrusy aroma. The fruit then diverges, adding lychee and grape soda. While initially subdued, the oak gains steam over time, carrying with it allspice and vanilla.
Finish: A brief flash of wasabi jolts all the senses awake. Oils coat the palate, notably tea tree and grapefruit, but also a note of fried plantain. Maraschino liqueur, rosehip and coconut water linger.
Barrell New Year Bourbon 2025 is limited to 12,000 bottles and is now available in stores and online at barrellbourbon.com for $89.99.
