What Defines This Bottle
Production Details
Disclosed production notes from Cascade Hollow Distilling Co. (George Dickel) -- structured, sourced facts, not a tasting review.
- Water Source
- Sourced from Cascade Springs, a natural cold limestone spring flowing directly through Cascade Hollow.
- Cooperage
- Charred New American White Oak barrels manufactured with #4 char staves and #2 char heads.
- Warehouse Notes
- Unlike multi-story Kentucky warehouses that experience dramatic vertical heat stratification, Dickel's barrels age horizontally in single-story, tin-clad rickhouses situated in a natural hollow, resulting in even, gradual maturation and moderate evaporation.
