Allow us to introduce you to our latest release, Barrell Bourbon Cask Finish: Ice Wine. To make an exceptional ice wine, optimal conditions and great care throughout the entire winemaking process are required. The BCS blending team took the same meticulous approach in carefully selecting barrels and creating a blend of mashbills and ages to harmonize with the intense sweetness, rich texture, and lively acidity of the ice wine. The resulting bourbon is bright and complex, with a rich body and notes of stone fruit and white chocolate. Barrell Bourbon Cask Finish: Ice Wine is available online and is currently making its way to stores nationwide. barrellbourbon.com/icewine

Esquire magazine names Barrell Craft Spirits as one of the best bourbon brands, saying, "There are bourbon brands that source their whiskey, slap a label on it, and call it a day. Then there are brands like Barrell Craft Spirits, which carefully selects stock from various whiskey-producing states and countries, blends it into innovative expressions, and releases new batches of bourbon throughout the year that vary in wonderful ways." https://lnkd.in/ec_jrTfN
