The Distillarium Cask & Slide is a cask-strength, non-chill-filtered straight bourbon from Yakima, Washington, aged four years in American oak and bottled at 116 proof (58% ABV).
Continuing The Distillarium's western heritage and equestrian arena theme, Cask & Slide follows Cask & Spin. Its name stands for control under force: just as a rider commands a horse's sliding stop with strength and precision, this bourbon channels raw barrel intensity into refined complexity. It is a small-batch release, aged four years in American oak with the distillery's Cask & Spin rotation process and bottled at true cask strength.
Bold and layered, it shows charred oak, maple syrup and rye spice, with an approachable sweetness over a rich wood backbone.
The rodeo-themed label makes it a standout gift for horse lovers and bourbon hunters.
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.
Cask-strength bourbon is bottled without dilution.
