Barrell Vantage is a blend of straight bourbons finished in three distinct expressions of virgin oak: Mizunara, French, and toasted American oak casks. The result is a warm, elegant bourbon that highlights the many dimensions oak can bring to whiskey.
Barrell Craft Spirits drew on years of experience with three-part barrel finishing, applying different char levels, toast levels, and oak origins to create a multidimensional blend. Each component whiskey is finished separately, then systematically combined through a blending process guided equally by science, experience, and creativity, focused on the specific flavor contribution each cask brings.
