Firefighter's Reserve 343 8 Year Single Barrel Bourbon 2026 750 ml

Firefighter's Reserve 343 is a single-barrel bourbon named for the 343 FDNY firefighters who died on September 11, distilled in Kentucky and aged in the high-desert Cascade Mountains at roughly 2,300 feet, where wide temperature swings drive extra barrel interaction. The standard mash bill runs 75% corn, 21% rye, and 4% malted barley. A portion of proceeds supports firefighters and their families. This single-barrel 8 year pick carries more oak and depth than the brand's standard release, the result of both the extended age and the mountain climate's aggressive aging. This is a bourbon built around its mission as much as its barrel selection. Pour it neat or over one large cube.

How to drink Firefighter's Reserve 343

Neat first, to catch what eight years in that high-desert climate built into the barrel. It's got enough oak weight to anchor an Old Fashioned if you'd rather mix it, but a single-barrel pick like this earns at least one unmixed pour.
