New England Barrel Company Single Barrel Bourbon Private Barrel (Barrel # 15-08) 7 year 750 ml

New England Barrel Company Single Barrel Bourbon Private Barrel #15-08 is a 7-year-old bourbon bottled from one hand-selected cask by the Massachusetts-based non-distiller bottler. As with NEBCo's other private barrel picks, the source distillery isn't named on the label — each release is sold on the strength of the individual barrel rather than a house recipe. Seven years in oak gives it a deep amber color and a rounded profile: sweet caramel and vanilla on the nose, toasted oak and baking spices on the palate, and a smooth, creamy texture through a long, gently sweet finish. A solid choice for bourbon drinkers who like tracking down independent single-barrel releases.

How to drink New England Barrel Company Single Barrel Bourbon #15-08

Neat is the way to go here to get the full caramel and oak profile; on the rocks works too if you want it cooler and slightly softened. It also holds up fine in an Old Fashioned.
