Barrell Dovetail Whiskey
Fulfilled by our friends at CraftShack Liquor Store American Whiskey | ABV varies per version of the bottle Producer: Barrell Craft Spirits Dovetail is blended to highlight some of our favorite flavors. Woody bourbon; terroir driven Dunn Cabernet; toasted french oak; Late Bottled Vintage Port pipes; black strap molasses casks; all working in tandem to create a buttery and deep whiskey as unique as it is delicious. Dovetail took almost a year to get right, from blending to labeling, all coming together in a seemingly perfect point. We have produced limited releases of Dovetail using the same ingredients and process. With each bottling, there are proof variations. 10-year-old whiskey distilled in Indiana, finished in Dunn Vineyards Cabernet barrels 11-year-old bourbon distilled in Tennessee finished in black strap rum casks and LBV Port Pipes Crafted and bottled in Kentucky Bottled at cask strength 1st bottling is 122.9 proof 2nd bottling is 123.8 proof 3rd bottling is 124.34 proof 4th bottling is 125.24 proof Latest version is 124.7 proof AWARDS Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition - 2019 Gold (Whiskey: Barrel Finished category) at Whiskies of the World Awards (2019) Whisky Advocate rating of 90 Nose: Opens with mature aromas both sweet (canelé, panna cotta, crème de noyaux) and savory (walnut oil, leather). This is followed quickly by a vast array of fruit derived both from the spirit (smoked apricot, grapefruit peel) as well as the cask treatment (sloe gin, damson jam). The aroma is high toned, pungently floral and herbaceous, with subtle, balancing pops of minerality. Palate: Darker (cocoa, molasses, burnt marshmallow) and spicier (cola, nutmeg, Tellicherry peppercorn) than the nose, an effect well-complemented by the cask treatment and rendered more complex by the savory and herbaceous themes running throughout. Finish: A sweet and elegant signature of rose jelly, chestnut honey, and Pineau des Charantes that also features hazelnut, eucalyptus, and Corsican mint.
