This Bulleit Single Barrel is a private selection chosen for Top Shelf, bottled from one barrel of Kentucky straight bourbon at 104 proof (52% ABV) and non-chill filtered.
Bulleit's single barrel program lets selected buyers taste and choose individual casks of high-rye Bulleit bourbon, aged roughly eight to twelve years in new, charred American white oak. Each bottle's label records details of its barrel, so no two picks are quite alike.
Bulleit is known for its high-rye recipe, which gives the bourbon a spicy, bold character balanced by caramel and vanilla from the barrel, and the 104-proof single barrel format carries that flavour with extra intensity.
Private selections are bottled in limited numbers and are prized by fans who like to compare barrels.
Bourbon must be made in the United States from a mash of at least 51% corn and aged in new charred oak containers, and straight bourbon must be aged at least two years. Those rules give bourbon its characteristic sweetness, with caramel and vanilla drawn from the charred barrels.
