Parker's Heritage Double Barreled Blend
Bourbon
Parker's Heritage Collection // Kentucky, USA
This 16th limited edition collection from Heaven Hill consists of two Kentucky straight bourbon whiskeys made with HH's traditional mash bill (78% corn, 10% rye, 12% malted barley). One, which represents 67% of the blend, was aged for 13 years before then being re-barreled into new, charred American oak barrels with a level 3 char. It finished its maturation there for four weeks. That lot was then blended with a 15 year-old bourbon which makes up the remaining 33% of the bottling. It's bottled without chill-filtration at barrel proof (132.
2). Heaven Hill will donate a portion of the proceeds to support ALS research and patient care In honor of the late Master Distiller Parker Beam. Available nationally and internationally in limited quantities as of early December 2022. (SRP $174.99).

Tasting Notes
"The aroma shows notes of baked pie crust, gentle smoke, and light/moderate hints of vanilla. Moving on to the taste you'll find buttered popcorn and a warm, long finish. Adding a touch of water presents a creamier and sweeter profile than without water, but also brings forth the toasted and charred oak notes as well which help from making it overtly sweet. Hints of baked apple appear from time to time. The bourbon feels a little slick on the palate, but that also helps in keeping the flavors stick around a bit longer. Toasted oak, leather and caramel stand out at the finish. A solid offering as always for a Parker's Heritage release."
