Resilient straight bourbon whisky barrels are hand picked single barrels of quality. We are looking for barrels that are well balanced with grain and wood. Barrels that really shine and bring some great flavors to the nose and palate. We enjoy finding these barrels, bottling them up and bringing them forward to our friends and community of whisky enthusiasts.
Resilient Bottled in Bond barrels are hand selected and bottled up in very small batches of maybe four barrels at a time. The High Rye mash bill 60/36/4 from MGP has a complexity to it, an extra dimension of depth that brings a viscosity to the mouth feel and wide range of flavors to the pallet.
Being bottled at 100 Proof is such an enjoyable level for this bourbon.
