Did someone say citrus season? This multi-fruit follow-up to Chattanooga Whiskey's beloved Bourbon Barreled Limoncello captures the vibrant richness of freshly squeezed grapefruit in liqueur form.
While fans of Chattanooga Whiskey's Experimental Series already know they never really repeat the same idea twice, they do love to reinvent and build on old concepts.
Although their Bourbon Barreled Limoncello was very well received, this concept explores a completely different side of citrus infusions, and just in time for citrus harvest.
Made with their signature "Barrel 91" mash bill along with over 125 pounds of citrus peel, this fruity and floral white whiskey served as the perfect base for a lengthy three-week infusion of grapefruit, orange, and hibiscus.
Crafted from only real ingredients, this elegant liqueur showcases the multi-dimensional qualities of an under-appreciated style alongside their very own Tennessee High Malt.
Experimental Batch 040: Bourbon Barreled Citracello will be available exclusively at the Chattanooga Whiskey Experimental Distillery on Thursday, October 24, for $44.99. Limited quantities will also be available on Seelbachs.com in the coming weeks.
