Two Private Barrel Releases

by Blake Riber November 23, 2020

It seems like our barrels are coming in two's these days! Today we have new barrels from Spirits of French Lick (SoFL) and Pinhook. We're also making the Pinhook Vertical 5-year bourbon available to Bourbonr Pro members today. This is the third barrel we have selected from SoFL. It's the first time we've selected from their high rye mash bill. This release is also the first 4-year barrel we've select from the. The Pinhook is just delicious MGP. We were offered three samples. Master Taster, Sean Josephs, grades each barrel himself. I'm proud to say that we select an "A" barrel blind! If you have any other questions about these releases, please let me know.

Most are probably familiar with the Pinhook Vertical Series. This is the single barrel program within the Vertical Series. Every year Seelbach's is allowed to select a barrel from the corresponding Vertical age statement. This year we selected from a 5-year-old bourbon.
