1792 Description
Barton 1792 Distillery was established in 1879 and continues today as the oldest fully-operating Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky. Situated in the heart of bourbon country on 196 acres, the Distillery boasts 29 barrel aging warehouses, 22 other buildings including an impressive still hours, and the legendary Tom Moore Spring.
Bourbon insiders have long acknowledged that full proof bourbon has a distinctively rich flavor. This bourbon underwent a distinct filtering process, forgoing the typical chill filtration, and only passing through a plate and frame filter. This allowed the bourbon to maintain a robust proof for bottling, as well as a full rich and bold flavor. Bottled at its original 125 barrel entry proof, just as it was years ago when the barrels were first filled, 1792 Full Proof Bourbon is exceptionally distinct.
TASTING NOTES
Strong and full of flavor, this bold bourbon boasts and incredible deep and smoky taste, superbly balanced with sweet vanilla and notes of caramel.
Tasting Panel: 92 Points
Lush and nuanced nose; silky, sweet, and toasty with no hard edges; a mellow, dense, and long cask-strength spirit.
