The program earmarks individual barrels in the warehouse, ages every bourbon at least eight years, heat-cycles part of the maturation in PCS Distilling's own warehouse to drive the spirit deeper into the new charred American oak, then bottles each barrel non-chill filtered at full cask strength with no water added. A decade in oak has concentrated this barrel into a dense, oak-driven pour. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 146.6 proof (73.3% ABV), cask strength — hazmat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCask:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Cask #A78, new charred American oak\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Prohibition Craft Spirits (PCS Distilling), Louisville, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFiltration:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-chill filtered, no water added\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky, USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Single Barrel Program Built on Proof\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProhibition Craft Spirits was founded by Keith Hazelbaker in 2016 in Louisville's NULU — New Louisville — district, and its whiskey work grew from the NULU single barrel bourbons into the Louisville Whiskey Co. label: private, single barrel releases only, each barrel earmarked in the warehouse for the program. The heat-cycling is the house signature — deliberate temperature swings push the spirit in and out of the wood, raising both proof and viscosity — and bottling without water or chill filtration means Cask #A78 reaches the glass exactly as it came out of the barrel.
