Cardinal Spirits Cardinal Gold

Cardinal Gold Blended Whiskey is a small-batch creation from Cardinal Spirits, a craft distillery located in Bloomington, Indiana. Known for their dedication to quality and innovation, Cardinal Spirits uses locally sourced ingredients to produce extraordinary spirits, and Cardinal Gold is no exception. This limited series whiskey is a blend of carefully selected 5- and 6-year-old Indiana whiskeys. With a mashbill that includes high-rye and corn-forward bourbons, this spirit offers a remarkable depth of flavor. What sets Cardinal Gold apart is its finishing process—portions of the rye whiskey are slow-proofed in Creekbend Brandy and Blackstrap Rum barrels. This unique technique lends the whiskey a layered complexity that shines through in every sip. At 106 proof, Cardinal Gold delivers a balanced yet bold profile. Expect notes of caramel, cherry, and cola on the palate, with hints of black pepper, tobacco, and sweet oak lingering in the finish. It's versatile enough to enjoy neat or to elevate classic cocktails with its sophistication. Available at select retailers across Indiana, Chicago, Kentucky, and Tennessee, Cardinal Gold Blended Whiskey is a superb choice for whiskey enthusiasts looking for a refined and memorable sipping experience.
