The second release in Barrell Craft Spirits’ Decade series brings together Canadian-distilled whiskeys from every year between 1995 and 2005. Aged 20 to 30 years, then crafted and bottled in Kentucky, this blend combines exceptional maturity with a formidable 141.3 proof (70.65% ABV).
Secondary maturation in Spanish brandy and Hungarian oak casks adds depth to a rich, oak-driven profile. Syrupy fruit, dried figs, toffee, and spiced chocolate meet cinnamon and seasoned oak, creating a full-bodied whiskey with concentrated flavour and pronounced warmth.
A distinctive release for collectors and enthusiasts of mature, high-proof whiskey, Decade 2 showcases Barrell’s approach to blending across vintages and cask styles.
