Toasted barrel finishes are all the rage right now, and we think that the team over at RY3 knocked it out of the park with this one! They really push the art of blending forward, searching far and wide for 3 unique whiskeys that together equal much more than the sum of their parts. The Toasted Barrel (think of the staves as baked vs. charred with a flamethrower) rounds out the high proof of this blend to add excellent depth to the pour.

This Bottle stems from our December 2022 Blind Tasting Subscription Box.
