What Defines This Bottle
Bottled-in-Bond
A federally regulated designation; single distiller, single season, aged at least 4 years, bottled at exactly 100 proof; layered on top of an underlying recipe rather than describing one of its own.
Governed by the Bottled-in-Bond Act of 1897 (27 CFR § 5.42): single distiller, single distillery, single distillation season, aged at least 4 years in a federally bonded warehouse, bottled at exactly 100 proof. This site's own catalog records one proof designation per bottle, so a real-world Bottled-in-Bond release that also happens to be barrel-proof-labeled may only surface here under one of the two designations -- see How to Read a Label and the Proof & Dilution Calculator for how a fixed 100-proof requirement compares to standard and barrel-proof bottling.
Learn about Bottled-in-Bond →Single Barrel
Whiskey drawn and bottled from one individual cask rather than mingled across many; a bottling method, not a mash bill or flavor profile of its own.
A bottling choice, not a production step upstream of it -- the whiskey ages and is distilled the same way as the distillery's other releases, then gets pulled from one specific barrel rather than blended with others before bottling. Bottle matches here come from a bottle's own name explicitly naming it a single barrel release, not an independent barrel-count field -- see this style's own Explore Bottles section for that caveat. See Rickhouse Science for how a barrel's own floor level and rick location can make one single barrel taste different from its neighbors.
