Devils River Distillery has launched a single barrel Bourbon whiskey in its home market.
The iteration, described by the craft distiller as “100% grain to glass Texas straight Bourbon”, is produced at the company’s San Antonio, facility using grain grown in the state. It will be released across 29 states this month.
“This is an expression we have been working on for many years,” says co-founder & president Mike Cameron. “Up to 75% of the flavour in the whiskey comes from the dark #4 charred oak barrel the whiskey is aged in, this gives Devils River Distillery an advantage to their ageing process.”
Earlier this month, data from the Distilled Spirits Council of the US and SpiritsEurope showed a 41% drop in US whiskey exports to the EU and UK since June 2018.
