An innovative approach to twice-barreled bourbon creates the rich and colorful flavor of Woodford Reserve Double Oaked. Uniquely matured in separate, charred oak barrels – the second barrel deeply toasted before a light charring – extracts additional soft, sweet oak character.
A key part of the history of American Rye Whiskey and of New Orleans, this NOLA original is the heart of the first American cocktail, The Sazerac. Upstate’s Private Barrel gives you a special take on this smooth classic spirit, with aromas of clove, vanilla, anise and pepper, subtle flavor notes of spice, citrus and a hint of licorice on the finish. And at 90 proof and under $30, it’s a “no brainer”!
Known as “The Father of Bourbon”, Elijah Craig is the one that started it all, being the first to age his whiskey in new charred oak barrels. This Private Barrel, selected by Upstate’s staff, is an upscale version of E.C.’s regular “Small Batch”. Smooth, with signature flavors of warm spice and subtle smoke, it’s great for sipping and makes an excellent mixer as well.
“Inspired by the whiskey made using an old family recipe over a 150 years ago”, this high rye award-winning whiskey is a treat for lovers of bold, spicy yet smooth Bulleit Bourbon. Along with the spice, flavors of sweet oak, maple, nutmeg, warm ginger muffin with raisins and light toffee dance on the palate. Hand selected by Upstate’s staff, this Barrel Strength bottling is uncut and non-chill filtered.
A truly unique whiskey, Upstate’s barrel is one of only 6 produced for the US and the only one East of the Mississippi! High West, based in Park City Utah, is known for their excellent offerings and this blend of Straight Bourbon Whiskeys finished in Cognac barrels is the cream of the crop. A perfect post-dinner (or anytime) quaff, it’s smooth and sophisticated but not stuffy. Indulge yourself!
This award-winning Bourbon is another classic. Strong, rich and full of flavor, it boasts an incredible deep and smoky taste, superbly balanced with sweet vanilla and notes of caramel. At 125 proof and with a high-rye mash you might expect too much intensity, but instead the smooth but potent nature of this whiskey keeps it from over-powering your palate. It’s big alright, but oh so tasty; and at $50, it’s a steal!
