Barrel Craft Spirits Barrel Bourbon Cask Finish Series Amburana 5 year 750 ml

Barrel Craft Spirits Bourbon Cask Finish Series is finished in Amburana wood, a Brazilian hardwood increasingly used in the spirits world for the distinctive cinnamon and baking-spice character it imparts, applied here to a five-year bourbon base. Because the whiskey carries a secondary Amburana finish after its initial aging, it isn't labeled with a strict straight bourbon designation the way an unfinished bottling would be. Expect the base bourbon's caramel and vanilla joined by pronounced cinnamon and clove notes from the Amburana wood, with a warm, spice-forward finish. It suits bourbon drinkers curious about unusual, non-traditional cask finishes.

Barrel Craft Amburana Finish

Sip it neat first - the Amburana spice is distinctive enough that ice can mute the cinnamon character before you get a full read on it.
