Bottled at 100 proof, this bourbon was named “Best Buy Whiskey of the Year” by Whisky Advocate.
Federal regulations in the United States (
27 C.F.R. 5 to be specific) require that bourbon be made from a mashbill of at least 51% corn before being matured in new oak barrels and bottled at 80 proof or higher. Bourbon that meets these requirements
and that has been aged for a minimum of at least two years may be called straight bourbon.
Very Old Barton is a Kentucky straight bourbon that has been matured for an average of four to six years in charred, American oak casks before being bottled at 100 proof. As a result, the bourbon has a rich amber color along with an aroma of vanilla beans and chewy leather. Notes of rich caramel, nougat, rye spices and toffee dominate the palate, and lead to a bold finish.
The bourbon was named one of the “Best Budget Bourbons by
Serious Eats and “Best Buy Whiskey of the Year” by
