Barrell Craft Spirits’ New Year 2026 release is designed as a toast to new beginnings. This limited edition blend spotlights the art of high-proof bourbon blending and captures a spectrum of character across multiple states and ages.
Tasting Experience
Appearance: Warm golden amber with rich depth and a glow that hints at layered complexity.
Nose: Bright fruit notes of peach and cherry mingle with green apple, maple, pistachio, and fresh herbs.
Palate: Vivid and engaging—tart apple and citrus lead, giving way to molasses, pumpkin bread, roasted nuts, and baking spice. An oily, chewy texture underscores the cask strength profile.
Finish: Long and warming, with oak tannins, clove, roasted chestnut, and lingering sweet spice that evolves sip by sip.
Craftsmanship
Origin: Blended and bottled by Barrell Craft Spirits, Louisville, Kentucky—renowned for pushing the bounds of whiskey creativity.
Blend & Age: A marriage of straight bourbons aged 5 to 16 years from several U.S. states, showcasing both youthful vigor and mature depth.
Proof & Bottling: Bottled at full cask strength, 110.3 proof (55.15% ABV), with no chill filtration, preserving the intensity and texture of the barrels.
Exclusivity: Released annually, each New Year edition is a unique, non-repeatable blend designed for collectors, connoisseurs, and celebratory occasions.
Best Enjoyed
Serve neat or with a few drops of water to coax out herbal and floral undertones. A large ice cube can temper the proof without diluting the complexity. This whiskey shines as a ceremonial pour for welcoming new chapters.
