Join Whisky WayfarersChapter One: Kentucky Origins
1792 Aged Twelve Years
Volume: 750ml
ABV: 48.3% (96.6 Proof)
Origin: Barton 1792 Distillery, Bardstown, Kentucky
Mashbill: High-rye recipe
Maturation: 12 years in charred American white oak
Twelve years is a serious stretch to let anything rest. But in bourbon, time has a way of turning good into unforgettable.
This 12 Year Old starts with a high-rye mashbill, then settles into deeply charred American white oak for over a decade. The result is richly matured Kentucky bourbon with layers of deep caramel, warm spice, and dark fruit, with a finish that lingers long after the glass is empty.
Named World's Best Bourbon at the 2024 World Whiskies Awards, this is the kind of bottle that rarely makes it to shelves. When it does, it doesn't stay long.
Tasting Notes
Rich flavors of vanilla and cocoa abound in this full-bodied bourbon. After spending twelve years in oak, the delicate fruit notes in this whiskey are met with a lingering smoky finish that is more complex than most.
