Description
Barrell Bourbon Gold Label
BCS Gold Label Bourbon is a blend of 16 and 17-year-old
straight bourbons. Barrels for this release were selected
from four different collections: cherry bomb barrels with a
rich mouthfeel, nutty oak-forward barrels, high proof and
high complexity barrels, and barrels with pronounced milk
chocolate notes. The last group underwent a secondary
maturation in toasted virgin American oak casks before
being added to this intricate and seductive blend.
A classically fruity bourbon, as sixteen years of maturation
have produced an array of stewed and dried fruits of
kaleidoscopic complexity. The overlay of toasted oak has
rounded off all the sharp edges, leaving a soft and gentle
profile that belies its high proof.
