Devils River Barrel Strength 750 ml

Devils River Barrel Strength is a small-batch bourbon from Devils River Whiskey, distilled and bottled in San Antonio, Texas. It's made from a mash bill of corn, rye, and malted barley, aged in charred new oak barrels, and bottled uncut at barrel (cask) strength rather than diluted down to a standard proof, so it runs noticeably hotter and more concentrated than the brand's flagship bottling. Expect a deep amber color with caramel, vanilla, and baking spice up front, building to a bold, oak-driven palate with real heat on the finish. It's built for bourbon drinkers who want to taste whiskey close to how it comes out of the barrel, best approached neat or with a few drops of water rather than mixed.

How to drink Devils River Barrel Strength

Add water in small increments rather than ice — cask-strength bourbon like this opens up considerably with just a few drops, revealing more vanilla and less raw heat. Give it a minute between additions before deciding if it needs more.
