Stellum Cygnus Single Barrel Bourbon - WHA Selection

$179.00

$162.00
DESCRIPTION

Single barrel whiskeys are an expression of distinction and power. Every cask is different. Many make good ingredients, but only some possess the particular character and balance to make a worthy single barrel bottling.   Every Stellum Single barrel is selected for the program on its own merits. They are, however, bottled and released in groups. They give each group a name to group them by moments in time, though flavour profiles vary within each selection. 

Selected by: Whiskey Hunt Australia

Filtration: None
Barrel # Stellum Cygnus  B8

Distilled date: 04/08/2016
Bottled date: 06/18/2021
Age: 5 years, 2 months
Proof: 119.42 / 59.71% abv.
Mash bill:  60% Corn/36% Rye/4% Barley Malt

While marrying barrels for Stellum Bourbon and Stellum Rye, they occasionally identify specific barrels that they  feel speak strongly alone. We set these barrels aside and bottle them at their true cask strength. Each is very much an individual experience, an unfiltered expression of one specific aging rather than a blend.
