Learn MoreElliott Brothers Reserve 8 Year is a tribute to two great uncles who served in World War II, crafted by the team behind Argentine wine importer Vino del Sol. This limited release of just 18 barrels takes an 8-year-old Kentucky straight bourbon, double-barreled in American and French oak, and finishes it in toasted French oak casks that once held Altocedro Malbec Reserva. Bottled at a robust 108.4 proof, it layers dark fruit, warm baking spice, and wine-driven depth over classic bourbon character, making it a standout for anyone who loves bold, cask-finished whiskey.
Elliott Brothers Reserve 8 Year Old is a Kentucky straight bourbon built on a mash bill of 75% corn, 15% rye, and 10% malted barley. After maturing in both American and French oak, it is finished in toasted French oak casks that previously held Altocedro Malbec Reserva. It is bottled at 108.4 proof (54.2% ABV), delivering a full-strength bourbon layered with wine-cask character.
Classic bourbon sweetness meets the darker, fruit-forward influence of Malbec. Look for hints of ripe dark berries woven through warm oak and gentle baking spice.
The high proof carries a rich, corn-driven core, with the rye adding a touch of spice. The Malbec finish brings dark fruit and wine-influenced depth that rounds out the oak.
Warm and lingering, with baking spice and toasted oak balanced by a soft echo of red wine fruit.
Elliott Brothers is a special project from Matt Hedges, the importer behind Vino del Sol, created to honor his great uncles who served in different theaters of World War II. This bottling bridges Kentucky bourbon and Argentine winemaking by finishing in casks that once held Altocedro Malbec Reserva. It is a limited, small-batch release drawn from just 18 barrels.
Sip it neat to appreciate how the Malbec finish plays against the bourbon's bold proof, or add a few drops of water to open up the fruit and spice. It also pairs well with grilled steak, dark chocolate, or aged cheeses that echo its wine-cask depth.
