A GREAT American Single Barrel Bourbon that delivers quality and value.

George Dickel immigrated to the United States from Germany in 1844 where he started a small retail business. Within a few years he started buying regional Whiskies wholesale and reselling them to bars and restaurants. In 1888, Dickel’s company bought out one of his suppliers — the Cascade Hollow Distillery. The dark days of Prohibition forced them to close things down. When prohibition ended, the distillery was sold and the Bourbon renamed in honor of their founder. In 1956, the company returned to Tennessee, rebuilt the distillery, and adopted the Lincoln County process to become an official Tennessee Whisky. Today, the brand and distillery are owned by Diageo.

With a pedigree like George Dickel’s, it’s not surprising that they have amassed a tidy stockpile of aged Spirits. Over the last several years we have seen a strategic move on their part to start deploying those older casks into special offerings. And now we have a brand new one: George Dickel Single Barrel 15 Year Old.

This is the classic Dickel Bourbon — 84% corn, 8% rye, 8% malted barley — aged in new oak for a full fifteen years. It has all the aroma and flavors that Dickel Bourbon is know for, but a lot more of them. And since it is a single barrel edition each batch is strictly limited and proof and flavor notes will vary a bit which is part of the fun.

is the fermentation process by which a percentage of a previous fermentation is added to a new batch as a "starter" to get the fermentation going and maintain a level of consistency from batch to batch. A sweet mash means that only fresh yeast is added to a new batch to start fermentation.
Tennessee Whiskey closely parallels Bourbon, but final filtering through sugar-maple charcoal (called the Lincoln County Process) is what some producers say differentiates them. Tennessee Whiskey’s finish is sweeter and smoother than Bourbon.
George Washington was a man of many talents being both a military braniac and the First President of the United States. Interestingly, he also became the largest Whiskey producer in the United States after leaving the politics.
American companies usually spell “Whiskey” with the “e” before the “y.” George Dickel products use the Scottish spelling “Whisky” (without the “e”) on purpose because George thought that his products were just as good as any from Scotland.
Moonshine Whiskey is distilled from a varied mix of corn and sugar and is aged in Mason jars and jugs for the length of time it takes the customers to get home.
All George Dickel products are aged on site (cool and dry), but the George Dickel Rye Whisky is distilled in Indiana, due to the unique specifications Rye’s temperamental character requires.
