Doc Holliday 10 Year Cask Strength is a straight bourbon from World Whiskey Society, bottled at full cask strength and non-chill filtered. This bottle is 124 proof, and its label carries Doc Holliday's famous line, I'm your huckleberry.
World Whiskey Society's Doc Holliday series honours the legendary dentist turned gunslinger John Doc Holliday, and the 10 Year Cask Strength is a full-proof edition of the range. The barrels enter at 129 proof and are bottled without dilution or chill filtration, so the whiskey keeps all of its natural texture and power.
Ten years in oak build rich flavours of caramel, pecan and dark cherry, and the finish brings black pepper, oak spice and toffee.
The ornate Wild West label in cream and gold, featuring Holliday's portrait and a longhorn skull emblem, makes it a striking bottle for a bourbon collector or a fan of frontier history.
At cask strength, add water a few drops at a time to find your perfect balance.
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.
