Copper Tongue 16 Year Old Straight Bourbon Whiskey 750ml

Bottle size

Unearthing the finest lost barrels in the world, finishing them with expert precision and poise to produce whiskeys of unmatched quality; Orphan Barrel is responsible for making some of the rarest bourbons in history available to the public. Yet another mystifying limited edition release from Diageo's Orphan Barrel Project, the Copper Tongue 16-year-old cask strength bourbon is a subtle and sophisticated 89.9 proof whiskey sourced from George Dickel's Cascade Hollow Distillery in Tennessee. With a luxurious profile that's testament to the Orphan Barrel ethos and symptomatic of the expert approach their distillers take when finishing the whiskeys they've unearthed, the Copper Tongue 16 year old cask strength bourbon is a unique and interesting tasting experience. A bourbon produced at a Tennessee whiskey distillery may seem like the perfect paradox, but the resultant whiskey is perfectly aligned, singing on the palate and igniting the tastebuds. Expect nuanced hints of brown sugar, cinnamon and leather on the nose, with additional palate notes of clove, molasses and stone fruit, underpinned by a prolonged, spicy yet sweet finish. …

About the brand

Designed to uncover some of the whiskey world's rarest hidden treasures, Orphan Barrel is the brainchild of world-renowned liquor magnate Diageo. A truly unique project that sources 'forgotten' or 'abandoned' batches and barrels that distilleries may have left behind or not released for production, Orphan Barrel locates ultra-aged American whiskeys from some of the most famous distilleries around the USA and reinvents their release. Whether it's the spectacular Lost Prophet 22 Year Old, originally distilled at George T. Stagg Distillery, or the scintillating Rhetoric 23 Year Old, which was partially matured at the old Stitzel-Weller Distillery, Orphan Barrel unearths some of the most beautiful and complex 'orphaned' bourbon whiskeys that the United States has to offer, giving them new homes where they can be enjoyed rather than lost in time.

Surprisingly excellent and unexpectedly punchy, for a bourbon that's branded as cask strength with a proof of 89.8 I wasn't ready for this one. So well balanced and crazy flavorsome! There's a good level of sweetness with just the right amount of spice and power to make it a top-tier heavy hitter! Wow
