Pinhook 7 Year Old Vertical Series 'Bourbon War' True Single Barrel Straight Bourbon Whiskey 750mL

Limited to 167 Bottles

Selected by Bourbon Enthusiast

Every year Seelbach's is allowed to select a barrel from the corresponding Vertical age statement. Bourbon Enthusiast also selected a barrel from this lot. He picked a winner! This barrel is french toast on the nose with lots of caramel and creamy vanilla frosting on the palate. It's a delicious barrel. 

The True Single Barrel program was created out of the belief that every Pinhook single barrel should be selected on its individuality, rather than its conformity. Each barrel is bottled unfiltered at cask strength to highlight the exact expression which made the whiskey stand out from the crowd.

The Bourbon Vertical Series is a unique opportunity to follow a group of 1,350 MGP bourbon barrels as they age from four to twelve years, and experience the arc of flavors throughout the nine-year journey. Every year, Pinhook selects a group of bourbon barrels from the lot and blends and proofs them to create the most balanced expression of the whiskey at that age. The Vertical Series began with the inaugural 4 Year release in 2019, and the journey continues through annual releases up to age 12.

With an additional year of age, this 7-year-old bourbon has a warm and opulent nose of fresh baked raisin bread, dark dried fruit, brown butter and burnt sugar giving way to a rich and coating palate of spiced ginger cookie, dried fig, eucalyptus, and molasses.
