About the product: Chattanooga Whiskey’s limited edition Barrel Finishing Series celebrates the union of Tennessee High Malt, their style of Straight Bourbon Whiskey, into a variety of classic finishing casks. Crafted from a combination of unique mash bills – each containing at least 25% specialty malt – each batch is made to complement the flavor characteristics of the finishing barrel.
For their fifth finish, Chattanooga Whiskey revisited California wine – this time selecting pinot noir casks from the Russian River Valley of Sonoma County. Known for its foggy, cool, coastal climate, this small growing region of the north coast yields wines with vibrant fruit and subtle spice characteristics – boasting notes of cherry, berry, and kola nut.
To highlight and enhance the qualities of these finishing barrels, the distilling team brought together a custom blend of 5 bourbon mash bills. In addition to their classic wheated and roasted mash bills, this blend includes a one-off version of Chattanooga Whiskey’s Barrel 91 recipe distilled at higher proofs – producing a delicate and lively fruit character.
Aged for over 4 years – including 6 months in the pinot noir casks – the result showcases a dynamic balance between the flavors of roasted malt and bright fruit – highlighting the best of both whiskey and wine.
