Barrell Bourbon Foundation, 5 Year

Barrell Bourbon Foundation, 5 Year, is a crafted blend of straight bourbons from Barrell Craft Spirits, a brand celebrated for its expertise and innovation. This release marks a significant departure for the company, as it is their first non-cask strength bourbon, bottled at 100 proof. Sourced from undisclosed distilleries in Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, and Tennessee, the blend incorporates seven bourbons ranging in age from 5 to 9 years, with a mashbill of 73% corn, 23% rye, and 4% malted barley. Barrell Foundation Bourbon showcases the brand’s blending mastery, combining bourbons aged in diverse climates and conditions to create a cohesive and balanced product. The inclusion of multiple states of origin and varying mashbills highlights Barrell’s ability to harmonize complex components into a seamless final product. This release is designed to be approachable for a wider audience, offering the same level of craftsmanship Barrell is known for, but at a more accessible proof and price point. Priced around $60, Barrell Foundation Bourbon provides an entry point for those new to the brand while maintaining the quality expected by seasoned enthusiasts.
