Old Charter (USA)8

Old Charter 8 is a Kentucky straight bourbon with an age statement of eight years and a bottled strength of 40% ABV. For a novice drinker, that usually means a mature but approachable style, with the rounded sweetness and oak influence commonly associated with bourbon.

As an American whiskey made primarily from corn and matured in new charred oak barrels, bourbon often shows notes such as vanilla, caramel, and gentle spice. The age statement suggests additional time for the spirit and oak to integrate, while the modest strength points to an easy-drinking presentation.
