Broken Barrel Cask Strength Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey Black Label (115 Proof)
115 proof NAS Bourbon Broken Barrel Los Angeles, CA $42–$45 70% corn, 21% rye, 9% malted barley

Warm kettle corn with buttery toffee sweetness; candied nuts and warm spices reminiscent of street-roasted candied almonds; caramel and slight heat for the proof.

Velvet texture rolling across the tongue; honeycomb cereal and bright honey sweetness (not dark maple); cinnamon candy notes; substantial body with dense mouthfeel.

Short on first sip but compounding and lengthening with subsequent sips; honeycomb and candied nut notes linger.

Top notch
A phenomenal barrel-proof expression with velvet texture and sophisticated sweetness; priced to be enjoyed unabashedly as a daily sipper or cocktail base.
