Tasted as Day 24 (the final day) of the 2024 Saratoga Whiskey Club Advent Calendar. Every day is a new adventure with a blind tasting, where we each try to guess the country of origin, the type and age of the whisk(e)y, the ABV, and the type of barrel/cask used for maturation, followed by a reveal at 9PM. This whiskey was distilled at Heaven Hill and bottled by Nashville Barrel Company for the wholesaler Skurnik Wines and Spirits in NY. Operating since 2018 out of Nashville, Tennessee, Nashville Barrel Company is an independent non-distilling producer of spirits with a focus on aging, blending, and bottling approachable, small batch and single barrel cask strength bourbon and rye whiskeys.
