New year. New beginnings. New traditions. Every autumn, we create a very special blend of bourbons as a toast to the year to come. During the busiest time of year, making New Year Bourbon gives us an opportunity to reconnect with the pillars of our brand, celebrate the inherent creativity of our blending process, and rededicate ourselves to our forward-thinking, quality-driven line of spirits. Barrell Bourbon New Year 2022 is a tribute to the fresh possibilities and sense of renewal that every year brings. After the last two years, we’re also feeling particularly grateful for the amazing community of friends and partners that has supported Barrell Craft Spirits.

Tasting notes:

Appearance – wildflower honey

Nose – sweet, a little tangy, and shows white chocolate and carrot cake with cream cheese frosting

Palate – A sturdy wood tannin suits the bold acidity of sour apple candy, tart raspberry and pineapple

Finish – rather gentle, returning to the soft, grassy notes from the nose. Green tea, pandan leaf and chocolate mint yield to a final, peppery flourish of grains of paradise
