'Mo' — The 117-Proof Back-Label Barrel

The 'Mo' barrel is the companion pick to 'Larry': another single barrel, another uncut bottling, one year younger. Its proof comes from the most reliable source there is — the back label itself, photographed on the product page: 117 proof, "uncut and bottled at full barrel proof," bottle 65 of 109. Like its sibling, it's 6-year MGP Indiana bourbon in a Traverse City single-barrel pick, with the brand's mash described only as corn, rye, and malted barley. No barrel-specific tasting notes were published for this pick either, so expect the TCWC barrel-proof house character: pecan pie, caramel, espresso, cacao, and cracked pepper. Shop our bourbon shelf, browse the Traverse City Whiskey Co. range, or grab the 7-year 'Larry' barrel for the full Stooges set.

Tasting Notes

House barrel-proof character: pecan pie and caramel on the nose; espresso, cacao, charred citrus peel, and cracked pepper on the palate; nutty, lingering, and spicy on the finish. (Barrel-specific notes were not published for this pick.)

How to Enjoy

Neat with water on the side — a 117-proof pour rewards patience. Add drops until the spice settles and the caramel opens up.
