Tasting Notes: This is the first bottle I suggest to open for 30 minutes before pouring. The high proof takes a little longer to settle. Once it does, the nose is a thing of beauty! The nose is candied ginger and orange marmalade. The palate opens with gingerbread cookies, caramel and stewed apples. It s rich and sweet. The palate is viscous and drinks much lower than it s stated 131 proof. On the finish there s a flash of nutmeg, tangerine and toasted oak. Dried spices linger on this long finish.

After a less than 24-hour sell out of 006 we immediately went back to the drawing board. Our goal was to make this bottle available through the holidays. We think it s the best $100 option on the market, but that does no good if it s sold out. Because of that, we bottled 006.1 as a follow-up. Same mash, same age, same delicious flavor, just a slightly different proof point. Enjoy!

Seelbach s is dedicated to unlocking craft spirits. As a bespoke independent bottler, we embrace patience, waiting for that special whiskey to cross our path. That s precisely what occurred with this barrel-proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon, aged for 9 years and 5 months. This bottle remains uncut and unfinished, allowing the high-rye bourbon mash bill to highlight the elegance of aged whiskey. Enjoy!
