Barton in Bottle

Come get some.

1792 Ridgemont Reserve K&L Exclusive Single Barrel #25 Kentucky Bourbon $28.99 - (NOTE: This bottle will ship as a 1.5L sized bottle due to its size and shape). Sazerac's other distillery, the Barton facility in Bardstown, is not nearly as well-known as the Buffalo Trace side of things.  Ken Pierce, not Harlan Wheatley, is distilling over in Bardstown, making a high-rye Bourbon called 1792 Ridgemont -- a softer, smoother expression that's also bottled around Kentucky as Very Old Barton. While we can't get Very Old Barton here in CA, we can hand select barrels of Barton whiskey for the store and bottle them under the 1792 label. Our latest cask brings the red fruits and the soft banana right on the entry. The mid-palate evens out with creamy vanilla and the finish dances with lively oak spice. You might want to buy two of these because the first bottle's going to go faster than you think.
