The Story
A bold and adventurous expression from Hotaling & Co.'s acclaimed Hirsch Selected Whiskeys portfolio! Hirsch The Single Barrel is a true Kentucky Straight Bourbon crafted for those who appreciate the uncompromised, concentrated flavors of a single cask. While the exact age, mash bill, and proof can vary slightly from barrel to barrel (typically hovering around 110 proof), each hand-selected bottle delivers an incredibly rich, robust, and full-bodied tasting experience. Expect a massive, mouth-coating wave of classic bourbon sweetness brilliantly balanced by an intense, spicy oak kick. It drinks phenomenally neat, or stands up perfectly in a premium cocktail like a classic Old Fashioned.
NOSE
Warm and inviting with distinct, rich aromas of sweet grain, floral honey, warm vanilla bean, and toasted oak.
PALATE
Thick, oily, and intensely robust. A heavy rush of sweet corn, rich peanut butter, and caramel is beautifully balanced by a fiery, warming kick of baking spice and heavy barrel char.
FINISH
Medium-long, crisp, and exceptionally satisfying, leaving a lingering trail of soft citrus peel, sweet vanilla, and fresh cinnamon.
