Mr. Dan1els — 1984 Bourbon
House No. 06
1984 Bourbon
Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey, small batch, laid down in char-three American oak and left in the upper ricks until the wood is finished speaking.
The Whiskey
Aged the way a suit is cut. Slowly.
A high-rye mash bill — corn, rye, malted barley — distilled to a low proof off the still so the grain survives, then filled into new char-three American white oak at 103 proof.
Barrels go to the upper ricks, where the summer heat is unkind and the extraction is fast. We pull small batches of eighteen to twenty-two barrels at a time, marry them for a fortnight, and bottle at cask strength or 96 proof, non-chill filtered.

Tasting
Neat, in a glass with a stem.
Palate
Baking spice & oak
Cinnamon and clove from the rye, brown sugar, char, and a dry oak spine that keeps it from sweetness.
Finish
Long & dry
Leather, cocoa nib, and warm spice that stays a good while after the glass is down.
