In distillery lingo a "honey barrel" is said to be a barrel that produces exceptional flavor qualities. We're taking it to the next level.
For this project we partnered with our friends at Trubee Honey. They are a fantastic local artisan honey producer dedicated to doing things the right way. We started out by giving Trubee freshly dumped "honey barrels" (traditional meaning) that had aged 11 year old Belle Meade Single Barrel Bourbon. They then filled the barrels with local wildflower honey and allowed it to age in the barrel to produce their Barrel Aged Honey. They then emptied these now, quite literal, "honey barrels" and gave them back to us. We then refilled the barrels with our signature high rye blend of Bourbon.
The resulting Bourbon, flavored with real honey in "honey barrels", tastes like no other honey whiskey on the market. The bold and deliciously rich nature of this cask strength Bourbon makes it perfect for sipping neat, on the rocks, or for making a high proof classic cocktail.
