23 Year Old American Oak ex-Bourbon

23 Year Old American Oak ex-Bourbon Single Cask HH0619 was filled on the 21st of May 2001 and decanted on the 25th of February 2025, for a maturation of 23 years, 9 months.

After an incredible, decades-long maturation, HH0619 yielded just 194 bottles at 47.6% ABV.

The style of spirit we were producing in the year 2001 was destined for long-term maturation, and the benefits of those extra years are abundant in this cask. It is creamy and textural with full body and robust oak structure.

As single cask bottlings, every tiny batch is different, expressing the unique characteristics of each barrel. Each bottle comes in a handmade, solid oak presentation box, and includes a letter from our Distillery Manager.

TASTING NOTES

  • Nose

    Creamy and inviting, with the soft, sweet warmth of buttered sourdough and vanilla custard. Bright sparks of pine-lime cordial and charred pineapple lend vibrancy, while creaming soda and prune juice nod to a sweeter, nostalgic core. Unmistakably HH era spirit.

  • Palate

    Luscious, creamy, with a juicy, mouth-coating grip. Sweet oak and vanilla musk form the foundation, layered with maple syrup, shortbread and cookie dough. Bright bursts of milk bottle lollies and fruit leathers unfold into peaches, strawberries and a flicker of roasted pumpkin.

  • Finish

    Endlessly indulgent. Buttery shortbread and pine nuts give way to fireworks of juicy fruit - lemon drops, passionfruit, sherbet, vanilla wafers. Long, full and sweet.
