A Barrel That Belongs to Del Mesa Alone
Eagle Rare's single-barrel program lets select retailers taste through the rickhouse and claim one barrel for their store — and the Del Mesa team picked theirs for depth, balance, and character after a full decade in new charred American oak. Distilled at Buffalo Trace on Mash Bill #1, it carries everything Eagle Rare is known for, in a form that exists nowhere else.

Tasting Notes
Eagle Rare's brand profile: aromas of toffee, hints of orange peel, herbs, honey, leather, and oak on the nose; a bold, dry, oaky palate with candied almonds and rich cocoa; a dry, lingering finish with a hint of pepper. The Del Mesa barrel was selected for exceptional depth and balance — expect the house character at its most expressive.
How to Enjoy
Neat first — a store pick deserves a clean read. Then a splash of water or one large cube to open the oak and toffee.
