Process & Profile
Heaven's Door Double Barrel Whiskey combines two straight bourbons and one straight rye, each independently aged in new oak barrels for at least six years. These whiskeys are then blended and undergo an additional 6 to 12 months of aging in heavy charred, virgin American oak barrels. This secondary aging process enhances depth and complexity, yielding a dark amber spirit with rich toasted vanilla and oak flavors. Using the Lincoln County Process of maple charcoal mellowing ensures a smooth finish, while the final bottling proof of 100 strikes the perfect balance between strength and elegance.Tasting Notes
