Barrell Bourbon Cigar Blend Cask Strength

Cask Strength Blended Bourbon Whiskey | 55.6% ABV (111.2 Proof) | 750 mL | Kentucky, USA

Process & Profile

Barrell Bourbon Cigar Blend Cask Strength is a blended bourbon whiskey created by Barrell Craft Spirits and designed to deliver depth, richness, and balance whether enjoyed alongside a cigar or on its own. This expression is built from a carefully curated blend of bourbon whiskeys aged between 7.5 and 18 years, sourced from multiple states and unified through Barrell’s signature finishing and blending approach.

After blending, the whiskey is finished in a combination of Madeira, Armagnac, rum, and Hungarian oak casks, each contributing a distinct layer of flavor. The inclusion of new Hungarian oak adds intensity and structure, introducing spice and roasted notes that complement the deeper fruit and sweetness drawn from the finishing casks. Bottled at cask strength, this release retains full flavor concentration and texture.
