Peated
This is a 12-year-old bourbon with an extra finishing period in a Cabernet Sauvignon cask, a choice that can add a layer of red-fruit and wine-influenced character on top of the whiskey’s usual oak, vanilla, and caramel notes. For a novice drinker, Redwood Empire 12-year-old Bourbon Finished in a Cabernet Sauvignon Cask - San Diego Barrel Boys is likely to feel richer and more dessert-like than a standard bourbon, while still showing the mature wood influence expected from its age.
