In honor of its 10th anniversary, Watershed Distillery is doing a limited release of its first ever Barrel Strength Bourbon.
Slated to hit shelves later this month in Ohio with allocation to additional U.S. markets (Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, and Michigan) to follow in early October, the barrel strength bourbon is Watershed’s most mature bourbon to date. It is aged six years and finished in spent apple brandy barrels. The expression is distilled, aged, and bottled entirely at Watershed’s Chesapeake Avenue distillery.
The bourbon is a result of sourcing ingredients from close to home, bringing together people and ideas, and never taking shortcuts. “We’ve been working on this bourbon for quite some time now,” stated Watershed Distillery’s CEO Greg Lehman. “But our work has paid off as this spirit exceeds all of our expectations — rich on the nose, balanced on the palate with a crisp red apple finish from the apple brandy barrel. It’s truly a unique bourbon, and I know I speak for the whole team when I say we can’t wait for our supporters and craft spirits fans to get their hands on a bottle.”
Watershed Barrel Strength Bourbon is 119.3 proof and will be available for $69.99.
