Hillrock Estate Distillery Solera Aged Bourbon Whiskey

Description

World’s First Solera Aged Bourbon. “Solera” – a stack of barrels where a small portion of whiskey is removed periodically and new whiskey is added. No barrel is every fully emptied, and age and complexity gradually increase over time. Hillrock marries small barrel-aged Hillrock Estate Bourbon with mature seed bourbon before finishing in 20 year-old Oloroso Sherry casks to balance flavors and add layers of complexity….Current average age of the Hillrock Solera Bourbon is over 6 years and the rye content is approximately 37%
