Buzzard’s Roost Char #1 Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a carefully crafted expression from Buzzard’s Roost Whiskey, a Louisville, Kentucky-based brand known for its innovative approach to barrel finishing. While the bourbon itself is sourced from Midwest Grain Products (MGP), Buzzard’s Roost sets itself apart through its proprietary barrel program. The barrels used for this whiskey are toasted before being charred to a light Char #1 level, a process that enhances the whiskey’s complexity and allows for a more nuanced interaction between the spirit and the wood. This bourbon is aged for four years and bottled at 105 proof (52.5% ABV), striking a balance between boldness and approachability. The use of multiple flavor-specific barrels in the blending process adds layers of depth, making it a versatile choice for both sipping and cocktails. Buzzard’s Roost Char #1 is worth exploring, for the brand's unique barrel finishing and dedication to creating distinctive whiskeys.
