About this bottle

This single barrel of Sonoma Distilling Co.'s Cherrywood Smoked Bourbon comes from Barrel #15-0463, distilled in 2015 at the company's Sonoma County, California facility. It's a straight bourbon built from corn, rye, and malted barley, then aged in new American oak that was smoked with cherrywood before filling — a house technique that layers gentle smoke under the usual caramel and vanilla. Bottled at full cask strength with nothing added back, so the barrel's true proof and flavor come through unfiltered. Expect toasted oak, dark caramel, and a wisp of fruitwood smoke on the nose, with a rich, full-bodied palate and a long, warming finish.

How to drink Sonoma Distilling Co. Cherrywood Smoked Bourbon

Cask strength means water is your friend here — a few drops open up the cherrywood smoke without drowning it. Neat or with a splash is the move; ice will mute the smoke this barrel was built around. Save the mixing for a bourbon you're not sipping for the smoke itself.

Good to know

Questions about this bottle

What does cask strength mean for this bourbon?

It's bottled straight from the barrel with no water added back, so the proof and flavor are exactly what Barrel #15-0463 produced — typically stronger and more concentrated than standard-proof bourbon.

What gives this bourbon its smoky character?

Sonoma Distilling Co. smokes the new American oak barrels with cherrywood before filling them, which lays a gentle fruitwood smoke under the usual caramel and vanilla notes as the whiskey ages.

Does this work in cocktails?

It can, though the cask strength and smoke are built for sipping — if you do mix it, a stirred, spirit-forward drink like an Old Fashioned lets the cherrywood smoke come through instead of getting lost.
