Barrell Bourbon Cigar Blend

Ignite your senses with the **Barrell Bourbon Cigar Blend**, a sophisticated release from Barrell Craft Spirits that bridges the gap between old-world tradition and modern blending mastery. Designed to linger on the palate, this cask-strength bourbon is a marriage of whiskeys aged between **7.5 and 18 years**, finished in a complex array of **Madeira, Armagnac, rum, and Hungarian oak casks**.

Bottled at a robust **111.2 Proof (55.6% ABV)**, this expression is built for slow sipping. While the Madeira, Armagnac, and rum casks contribute plush structure and deep fruit warmth, the inclusion of **new Hungarian oak** adds a unique energy, infusing the spirit with bold notes of pepper-roasted coffee and toffee. Whether enjoyed alongside a fine cigar or as a standalone pour, this bourbon rewards patience and conversation.
