Old Man Winter Cask Strength Bourbon (Blend #4)

Cask Strength Bourbon | 58.9% ABV (117.8 Proof) | Blend #4 | Barrels 7–11 Years Old

Process & Profile

Old Man Winter Cask Strength Bourbon (Blend #4) is a high-proof bourbon blend built from barrels aged 7 to 11 years, bottled at a bold 117.8 proof. With that kind of age range in the blend, you typically get a balance of mature oak depth from the older barrels and brighter sweetness and spice from the younger side—resulting in a pour that drinks rich, structured, and winter-warm without needing anything added.

Because it’s labeled cask strength, this bourbon is designed to deliver full intensity: concentrated flavor, a thicker mouthfeel, and a finish that keeps evolving. It’s a great fit for customers who want a robust bottle for slow sipping, or a premium backbone for spirit-forward cocktails that won’t get lost in dilution.

Tasting Notes

• Finish: Long and spicy with lingering oak, sweet heat, and a steady fade

What Makes It Special

How to Enjoy

Start neat to understand the full profile, then adjust to preference.

• Neat (Recommended): Best for the full cask-strength experience—sip slowly and let it open in the glass

• A few drops of water: Helps lift sweeter notes and soften the heat while keeping the structure

• One large cube: Gradual dilution can reveal more caramel/vanilla and round the spice

• Old Fashioned: Use a lighter touch on sweetener; let the proof carry the drink

• Manhattan-style build: Pair with a richer vermouth and keep the ratio spirit-forward
