Cask strength. Thirteenth Colony Distillery's 15th Anniversary expression — celebrating 15 years of Georgia craft bourbon production from the Americus distillery, bottled at one of the highest proofs ever released under the Thirteenth Colony label.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThirteenth Colony Distillery is named for Georgia's designation as the 13th and final original American colony — a founding heritage nod from a distillery that has been rebuilding Georgia's craft spirits tradition since its establishment. The 15th Anniversary marks a decade and a half of production at a distillery that has become one of the Southeast's most recognized craft bourbon producers.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAt 139.2 proof, the 15th Anniversary is the most powerful expression Thirteenth Colony has released — cask strength, no dilution, no filtration. For context: the previously optimized Thirteenth Colony Cask Strength Double Oaked is already a high-proof craft expression; the 15th Anniversary at 139.2 proof surpasses it significantly, approaching the territory of the highest-proof BTAC Stagg releases. This is Georgia bourbon at its most extreme and celebratory.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very deep amber with the extraordinary concentration of 139.2 proof barrel strength.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Intense vanilla, caramel, grain spice, and toasted oak — the Georgia climate's concentrated barrel character at maximum proof intensity.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Powerful and full — the 15th Anniversary cask strength delivering Georgia straight bourbon at its most extreme and celebratory.\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Extraordinarily long — the high proof amplifying finish duration through a deeply satisfying, celebratory close.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thirteenth Colony Distillery, Americus, Georgia\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Georgia Straight Bourbon Whiskey, Cask Strength\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProof:\u003c\/strong\u003e 139.2 (69.6% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15th Anniversary\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBottling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cask strength, uncut\u003c\/li\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e  \u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/bourbon\"\u003ebourbon at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e   \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHow does the 15th Anniversary compare to the Thirteenth Colony Cask Strength Double Oaked?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Double Oaked is already a high-proof cask strength expression with secondary French oak maturation adding vanilla and caramel concentration.
