Proof: 123.12 proof

Finishing Barrel: Jamaican Rum

Bottle size: 750 ml

Tasting Notes: Fans of sweeter, more dessert driven flavors will relish in this Jamaican Rum finish barrel. A touch lower proof, more caramel, honey, waffle cone, cake batter and baking spice roll through on the palate with a fruity essence. The Jamaican Rum finish brings a lovely, interesting complexity. Not overly funky, notes like pineapple, apple pie, clove, orange peel and honey accentuate the whiskey with a finish that’s extremely long lasting. Astonishing complexity, it’s rich on the palate, packed with mature tannin and a vibrant, fun finish.

The Story: “The Private Release Whiskey Series is hands down our most ambitious project to date,” said Company Founder Joe Beatrice. “We pride ourselves on pushing the creative envelope every day, exploring opportunities to source and blend outside the box, and showcase the world’s most exciting spirits.”

Private Release Barrels, which are a blend of whiskeys (vs. single barrels), offer retailers, bourbon clubs and whiskey aficionados alike, something truly unique. At BCS, every batch is produced as a limited release and has a distinct flavor profile. Because certain batches were purchased through retailers or clubs, or may only be available online, BCS has added a special section to its website which contains the full list of offerings and suggestions for where to buy. Each offer contains between 150-180 total bottles.
