Barrell Foundation Bourbon was our first foray into non-cask strength bourbon. Our goal was to deliver a world class bourbon at an even better price point. This is a classic bourbon with a finish that is creamy and sweet, emphasising cinnamon, toffee and vanilla pudding. Twenty-three percent rye in the mash bill gives Foundation richness and complexity, while the approachable proof point brings out lush sweetness and dark fruit. Your Old Fashioneds will never be the same.
Tasting Notes:
Appearance: Golden amber.
Nose: An initial wave of honey, candied-strawberry, dark cherry, and grilled cantaloupe greet you. Notes of lavender and fennel emerge and are balanced by cocoa, brown butter, and cardamom. Grilled peaches and hazelnut linger, followed by a burst of lemon and lime zest with a touch of oily, waxy fruit peel.
Palate: Maple pecans, dark chocolate and cinnamon unfold and are quickly followed by rich flavors of tiramisu and cardamom cake, with a mouthfeel to match. This expands to include hints of fennel, lemongrass, and lemon zest, balancing the creamy, full-bodied mouthfeel.
Finish: Creamy and sweet, emphasising cinnamon, toffee, vanilla pudding.
With water: Even more viscous and creamy with the vanilla pudding evolving into bananas foster. The citrus zest and the lemongrass become more elevated with notes of orange sherbet.
Rated A+ from the Bourbon Junkies.
"Big, bold, and brash bourbon is fun, but this 100-proof whiskey should make you very happy." - Jonah Flicker, Robb Report (93 Points)
"For a company’s first foray into proofed-down whiskey, Barrell Foundation impresses. " - David Thomas Tao, VinePair (91 Points)
"An initial rush of praline and light maple syrup quickly builds with dry, warming notes of cinnamon and clove-studded orange before a generous finish of cream soda and buttery caramel. A long overdue daily drinker that’s sure to be a crowd pleaser." - Drew Beard, Drinkhacker (90 Points)
"While it may not be as memorable as some of the most noticeable Barrell Bourbon batches, thanks to its lower proof and easy sipability, it may just be my favorite Barrell Bourbon yet." - Breaking Bourbon
