Parker's Heritage 18th Edition 14 Year Malt Whiskey

Product Description

The Parker's Heritage Collection 18th Edition 14 Year Malt Whiskey is an exceptional release that pays homage to the legendary craftsmanship of Parker Beam, the esteemed late Master Distiller. This edition is a profound expression of American whiskey, showcasing the depth and versatility of malt whiskey through an innovative aging process.

Aged for 14 years in the upper echelons of Rickhouses O and Q, this malt whiskey begins its journey by developing a rich, earthy, and herbal base. The whiskey is then transferred into uniquely reconstructed cognac barrels, which have been enhanced with new heavy toast staves. This secondary aging, lasting nearly four months, imparts additional layers of complexity, transforming the whiskey’s fundamental characteristics.

Upon tasting, the Parker's Heritage Collection 18th Edition reveals an intricate tapestry of flavors. Initial notes of molasses and rich dark chocolate greet the palate, followed by a succulent array of dried summer fruits. The heavy toast staves lend a smoky undertone that complements the whiskey's robust profile, resulting in a remarkably complex spirit.

Bottled at 107 proof without chill filtration, this malt whiskey retains all its robust and nuanced flavors, offering a full-bodied and textured experience. This method ensures that the whiskey’s character, developed through its unique double-barreling process, is presented in its purest and most intense form.
