Barrell Bourbon New Year 2023 review: Barrell's annual salute to the new year combines whiskey from eight different U.S. states. whiskey bourbon cocktails
The entire ethos of Barrell Craft Spirits is really based around blending. Their eponymous Barrell Bourbon batches typically combine bourbon from a few different states—often Tennessee, Kentucky and Indiana, the three U.S. bourbon powerhouses—in a quixotic quest to find the common ground of the American bourbon experience, or explore its far-flung corners.
Three states? That’s kid stuff. Barrell’s New Year 2023 Limited Edition Bourbon contains whiskey from no less than eight different U.S. states—Tennessee, Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Wyoming, New York, Texas and Maryland. Likewise, it contains a huge range of age statements, with 5, 6, 7, 8 and 10-year-old straight bourbon whiskeys making up the blend.
On the palate, I’m getting cherry and brown sugar leading off, along with revisiting notes of brown sugar, toasted oak and cinnamon. There’s a hazelnut note that is nice, and some cornbread, along with more of that jammy red fruit. Over time, though, the standout increasingly becomes the warm oaky spices, suggesting nutmeg and cardamom. Decently sweet up front, this takes on a moderately tannic dimension in short order and finishes fairly dry, making for a pretty elegant and balanced sipper.
All in all, this bourbon feels equal parts familiar and slightly exotic, and the balance between sweetness and tannic dryness is a highlight. On both the nose and palate, it notably grows with a little time in the glass, so it’s not a bad idea to give this one 15 minutes or so after pouring to open up.
