It is non-chill filtered and bottled at 92 proof (46% ABV).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCrafted in collaboration with a Texas-based distillery, the bourbon starts with a classic high-corn, 20% rye mash that balances sweetness and spice. The years in new charred American oak give it the traditional bourbon backbone of vanilla, caramel and oak, and the second cask, French oak barrels that once held Napa Valley wine, adds outstanding smoothness and complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe result is bold, smooth and distinctive, with balanced layers of smoke, spicy rye and creamy fruit. Leaving it non-chill filtered keeps the natural oils and texture from the barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGold Bar's tall black bottle, inset with a gold medallion, makes it a striking gift and a showpiece on any back bar.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBourbon 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bold, smooth and distinctive.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Smoke, spicy rye and creamy fruit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOak:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vanilla, caramel and French oak.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gold Bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Straight bourbon, double cask\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMash Bill:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80% Texas corn, 20% Oklahoma rye\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAging:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-6 years new American oak, finished in Napa Valley French oak wine barrels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBottling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-chill filtered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 92 proof (46% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat or over a large cube, or stir it into a Manhattan.
