Bib & Tucker Releases 8 Year Old Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon
Bib & Tucker has announced the release of its first bond bourbon: Bib & Tucker 8 Year Old Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon.
To be labeled Bottled-in-Bond, a whiskey must meet the standards of the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897. It must distilled during a single distillation season by a single distiller at a single distillery, be aged for at least four years in a federally bonded warehouse, and be bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV).
Bib & Tucker 8 Year Old Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon meets and even exceeds these requirements. It was distilled from a Tennessee high-rye mash bill in a single season in spring 2018 at Tennessee Distilling Group in Columbia, Tennessee (DSP-TN-21029), charcoal-mellowed through the Lincoln County Process, aged for eight years in new American oak, and bottled with minimal non-chill filtration at 100 proof.
Official tasting notes for Bib & Tucker 8 Year Old Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon follow:
Aromas of vanilla custard layered over seasoned oak deliver a warm, cream-like sweetness balanced by mature wood spice. An initial wave of crème brûlée, leather, and hickory is followed by subtle hints of dried apricot and honeysuckle, with a mouthfeel that is structured and complex, demonstrating depth without overwhelming sweetness. The finish is long and warm, a backbone of sweet oak with lingering notes of allspice and orange blossom.
Bib & Tucker 8 Year Old Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon will be available nationally beginning September 2026 for a suggested retail price of $64.99 (750 mL).
