1792FullProofSingleBarrelSelectCaskStrengthBourbonWhiskey(750ml)–WhiskeyHuntAustralia6thEdition

Sans Already sold out on the importer’s website, the 1792 Full Proof editions are amongst Whiskey Hunt Australia’s most popular selections. A Kentucky straight bourbon bottled at 62.5% ABV with rock-solid provenance from the Barton Distillery (previously awarded World’s Best Bourbon in 2018 and World’s Best Whisky in 2020), these whiskeys are also distinguished by a filtering process which uses a plate and frame filter instead of chill filtration to retain a more robust character. Boasting generous aromatics and mouthfilling flavours, the sixth instalment from WHA is one of the ballsiest 1792s to land on our shelves. Expressive from the first pour, the pleasingly sweet entry presents cherry ripe chocolate and wood spices followed by classic notes of caramel fudge and charred oak through a long, heart warming finish. Bourbons like this are seldom encountered in Australia. Given that only 144 bottles made it, expect it to go fast. Not stated, however these releases are typically around 8 1/2 years old.
