Amador - Double Barrel Chardonnay Cask
Amador Whiskey Co. Double Barrel marries the best of Kentucky Bourbon with Napa Valley wine barrel finishing. Its journey began in the heart of Bourbon country, where we selected exceptional Kentucky Bourbon that came to life in new charred American oak barrels aged 3.5 years.”
They transported this treasure westward along the 38th parallel to California, where finished the Bourbon with their family’s Napa Cellars Chardonnay French oak barrels for 6 months and bottled at 86.8 proof. This double-barrel aging technique creates characteristics from the individual barrels that are then blended together to make exceptional Bourbon, far greater than the sum of its parts.
Notes of vanilla, caramel, butterscotch, roasted almond mingle with hints of honey and tobacco. Rich and full bodied with a creamy, long finale.
