Buzzard’s Roost Char #1 Bourbon Whiskey

Introduction

Buzzards Roost Sipping Whiskey started in 2019, after Judy Hollis Jones and Jason Brauner met while doing a barrel pick. As the two got to know each other, an idea started to form. Lets start our own bourbon brand! they said. They knew they wanted Buzzards Roost to be not just exceptional but unique. So they turned to a trusted barrel expert at Independent Stave Company, who worked with them to create proprietary barrels for secondary maturation.

It was decided to use Char #1 on all their barrels, to let the whiskey access the oak influence more easily. It was also decided to season that oak for at least 18 months (6 months is the norm for other brands). And finally, they developed a series of exclusive toast profiles to coax out specific characteristics from the oak, bringing rare flavor combinations to every Buzzards Roost Sipping Whiskey.

Created from 4-year-old whiskey, and aged in their proprietary barrels, Char #1 Bourbon carries notes of cherry and dark fruit that stand out in any bourbon cocktail and is perfect for sipping and roosting.
