Buzzard's Roost Bourbon Char #1

Char #1 Barrel Finished Bourbon - 100 Proof

Buzzard's Roost Char #1 Bourbon represents a bold experiment in barrel finishing. Aged in unique Char #1 barrels within a bonded warehouse, this 100-proof bourbon showcases a remarkably silky mouthfeel and subtle sweetness that earned it exceptional scores before its national release.

The Char #1 Difference

Unlike traditional heavily charred barrels, Char #1 barrels receive the lightest level of charring, allowing for a more delicate interaction between whiskey and wood. The result is a bourbon with refined elegance—gentle oak influence, creamy vanilla notes, and a smooth, approachable character that belies its 100-proof strength.
