Barrell Craft Spirits (BCS) announced the releases of a new 22-year Sweet Peat Whiskey. The expression, part of the company’s Black Label Series, is a blend of Canadian and Scotch whiskies, which was distilled in Canada and Scotland, aged for 22 years, and finished in toasted Jamaican Rum and Islay Casks in Kentucky at 142.34 proof (71.17% ABV).

Barrell Sweet Peat whiskey reveals a different side of peat, where oak, sweetness, and gentle smoke come together in balance. Rare 22-year Scottish Speyside single malt and Canadian whiskies were finished in carefully selected toasted Jamaican rum and Islay whiskey casks. The different casks weave together notes of caramel, tropical fruit, toasted oak, and delicate peat smoke. The result is a whiskey where sweetness and smoke elevate one another.

“The BCS Black Label Series takes us back to our roots of creating highly unique whiskeys in extremely limited quantities and showcasing cutting edge blending techniques which set us apart from the crowd,” BCS Founder Joe Beatrice said in a news release. “Sweet Peat not only blends two single malt Speyside scotch whiskies with Canadian whiskey, but this expression also features two unusual finishing casks.”

Barrell Sweet Peat is now available for purchase online via the BCS website at barrellbourbon.com and at select retailers for the suggested retail price of $199.99 per 750ml bottle.

Founded in 2013 in Louisville, KY, BCS selects and blends products that explore different distillation methods, barrels, and aging environments. BCS’s extensive stocks of high-quality casks mean it can craft extraordinary blends that maximize the nuances of each ingredient. Creative finishes and a liberated approach to blending guides every product release.
