The Barrel Boys' Honey Cask
The San Diego Barrel Boys pride themselves on selecting the finest whiskey possible for their single-barrel expressions, and this pick is their honey-cask statement on Three Chord's blended bourbon. Neil Giraldo — musician, songwriter, producer and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee — named his brand for the three chords at the foundation of blues, country and rock & roll, and this cask-strength bottling plays loud: distilled in Kentucky, Indiana and Tennessee, then finished in a split of honey and toasted-oak casks.

Tasting Notes
At cask strength, expect a bold, honeyed attack — the honey cask finish brings a distinctive golden sweetness layered over toasted oak, warm spice and deep bourbon richness. A full-bodied, warming pour built for slow sipping.
How to Enjoy
Pour it neat in a rocks glass to taste the pick at full power, or add a few drops of water to open the honey and oak layers. At 116.6 proof it also stands up beautifully in a bold Old Fashioned.
