Barrell 33 Year Old Canadian Whisky Finished in French Oak and Oloroso Sherry Casks

Barrell Craft Spirits’ Canadian Whiskey finished in French oak and Oloroso sherry casks is an extraordinary 33-year expression that showcases both age and finishing artistry. Distilled in Canada and matured for over three decades before its secondary rest in French oak and sherry casks, it was bottled at cask strength, a staggering 140 proof, with only 1,500 bottles released. The whiskey opens with a layered nose of dark fruits, nuts, fudge, and subtle earthy tones, followed by a palate that blends syrupy grenadine, hazelnut liqueur, clove, and buttered popcorn, balanced by herbal touches of basil and mint tea. The finish is long and evolving, offering eucalyptus, leather, peanut oil, and autumn leaves. With a splash of water, sweeter notes of butterscotch, milk chocolate, and cherry emerge, adding further depth. This release delivers intensity, richness, and complexity, making it a rare and contemplative sipping whiskey that rewards patience and attention.
