Copper & Cask Double Oak Double Barrel Bourbon Whiskey
Distillery: Copper & Cask
116.2 proof
Copper & Cask Double Oak Double Barrel Bourbon Whiskey begins as a Kentucky Straight Bourbon aged in new charred American oak barrels, then undergoes a secondary maturation in specially toasted red oak barrels. This innovative double oak process deepens the color to a rich mahogany and intensifies the flavor profile, layering sweet caramel, vanilla, and toffee with nuanced notes of dried fruits, toasted nuts, and subtle spice. The red oak finish introduces distinctive tannic complexity and a velvety mouthfeel, elevating the bourbon beyond traditional expressions. Bottled at 45% ABV without artificial coloring, it balances richness and smoothness, ideal for neat sipping, on the rocks, or in cocktails. Produced by the Ontario-based Copper & Cask team, it exemplifies creative finishing techniques in modern bourbon production.

Reviews
Solid above-average double-oaked MGP bourbon. Worth it at $65-75 if you like oak-forward pours; allocated/limited batches so hunt or skip if over MSRP.
Nose: leather, oak tannins, caramel, vanilla, baking spices. Palate: graham cracker, creme brulee, charred oak, rich & savory. Finish: baking spices, vanilla custard, peppery oak. Savory double-oaked profile.
