Augusta Distillery Buckner's Single Barrel Bourbon 13 Year Barrel 100 147 Proof
Augusta Distillery Buckner's Single Barrel Bourbon 13 Year Barrel 100 147 Proof
Description
147 proof. 13 years. Single barrel #100. Augusta Distillery Buckner's — the highest-proof barrel in the entire Wooden Cork Buckner's collection and among the highest-proof American bourbons ever commercially released. At 147 proof (73.5% ABV), Barrel 100 surpasses the Barrel 105 (142.71) apex of the 13-year tier by 4.29 proof points.
147 proof is exceptional territory even by extreme-proof bourbon standards. For reference: the most celebrated ultra-high-proof BTAC release, George T. Stagg 2016, was bottled at 144.1 — Barrel 100 exceeds that by 2.9 proof. At this concentration, the bourbon is at or near the physical limit of drinkable barrel strength whiskey. A few drops of water are strongly recommended before tasting, and patience in the glass is essential to allow aromatics to open at this extreme concentration.
