Barrell Bourbon Batch 038 750mL

Earthy oak, honeyed impressions and herbs give Batch 038 a darker side of Barrell’s blending style. A splash of water reveals brighter cake and tropical-fruit notes beneath the mature wood character.

Key details

• Barrell Bourbon Batch 038
• Blend of straight bourbons
• 750 mL bottle

Flavor profile

Deep wood and earthy notes, fine tannins and a long finish; water brings cake, lemon and mango impressions.

Pairing & serving

Taste neat, then add water gradually. Try with dark chocolate, roasted nuts or mushroom-rich dishes.

After opening & when to enjoy

Store upright, tightly closed, away from heat and sunlight. Ready to enjoy now; spirits do not continue barrel aging in the bottle. After opening, aim to enjoy within about a year for the freshest flavor, especially as the bottle empties.

No decanting is needed.
