Traverse City Whiskey Co. Sherry Barrel Finish Bourbon represents a masterful fusion of traditional American distilling with the opulent flavors of Spanish sherry. This high-rye bourbon, initially aged for over five years in new American oak barrels, undergoes a transformative finishing process in Pedro Ximenez sherry barrels from the renowned Jerez region of Southern Spain. This additional nine-month aging period not only enhances the bourbon’s complexity but also imbues it with a unique richness and depth.

Intricate Aging Process:

• The choice of Pedro Ximenez sherry barrels is pivotal to this bourbon’s character. Known for their sweet, rich essence, these barrels impart layers of dense, fruity sweetness to the robust spice of the high-rye mash. The result is a whiskey that is both grounded in American bourbon traditions and elevated by European winemaking heritage.
