About the Whiskey:
As whiskeys from Barton 1792 Distillery continue to receive global acclaim, the Distillery has introduced its first ultra-premium brand. This range of Thomas S. Moore Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskeys has been finished in a variety of select casks from around the world. The first three expressions will be available in limited release this December, a Port Finish, a Chardonnay Finish, and a Cabernet Sauvignon Finish.

Barton 1792 Distillery's signature high rye recipe bourbon is aged for many years in new charred oak barrels before filling other casks that previously matured various wines or spirits from around the world, ranging from Cognac to Cabernet to Port and more. In these fabulous casks, the bourbon aged an additional one to three years. This extended cask-finishing method results in elegant whiskeys, each displaying a distinct flavor profile, reflecting nuances of both the bourbon and the finishing cask.

Ratings & Reviews:

Platinum - Ascot Awards 2024

"An easygoing sipper that's sweet and spiced; it leads with brown sugar, vanilla, baking spices and cola, plus hints of oranges, dried fruits and nuts. Warm and endlessly drinkable."

98 Points - Intl Wine & Spirits Competition 2022

"A fruity sherried nose, clean and fresh with minerals and complex earthy notes on the palate; there's warmth and spice at the back of the mouthfeel and a good burst of citrus that lingers on the length."

93 Points - Ultimate Spirits Challenge 2022

"Shows an enticing color of mahogany with crimson and ruby highlights. A heady nose combines toffee candy, baked plum, fig cookie, and toasted honey. On tasting the Bourbon continues with an assault of confectionary flavors recalling berry preserves and lingers with a toasty finish."

93 Points - Whisky Advocate

"The port casks give an arresting nose of saline, like a tidal pool, but rich with raisins, figs, hazelnuts, brown sugar, and orange peel. Tart yuzu appears, a curiosity, but not unwelcome. The full-bodied palate is spicy, rich, sweet, and nutty, resplendent with baking spice, brown sugar, Coca-Cola, dark chocolate, candied orange peel, fig jam, and toasted pecans and hazelnuts. Gingersnaps, Italian hot chocolate, brown sugar-encrusted pecans, and polished oak on the finish."
