French Oak Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 750ml
The result of an acquisition of a small number of superior French oak barrels from France in 2007, the Old Charter French Oak Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a masterfully crafted dram bottled at 92-proof. Composed of Buffalo Trace's distinct mash bill #1 - the same recipe used to make Eagle Rare and other prolific bourbons - Old Charter French Oak is NAS whiskey aged for a minimum of 12 years in these unique, imported French casks and was released in November of 2021. The nose introduces hues of vanilla sugar, floral, and honey between hints of sun-soaked fruits and spice. On the palate are layers of honey, syrup, and vanilla over oak and white peppercorn. Old Charter French Oak Kentucky Bourbon finishes with a last swathe of warm honey and soft leather for a rich and rewarding sip from beginning to end.

About the brand
The Old Charter brand was established in 1874 by Adam and Benjamin Chapeze, brothers operating under the name A. B. Chapeze, who were operating a distillery on the Bardstown branch of the L&N Railroad. Ben Chapeze traveled and pushed the brand and made it well known while his brother Adam managed the operation. Eventually sales were assigned under contract to Wright & Taylor, a Louisville wholesale house operated by John J. Wright and Marion E. Taylor. In 1933, the Bernheim distillery acquired the Old Charter Brand and all of its bourbon stock from Wright & Taylor, but did not start selling the brand using that stock until the stock was fully aged for bond in 1937. Wright and Taylor also used the Old Charter brand name for their remaining pre-prohibition bourbon stock. In 1937, the two majority owners of Bernheim, Gerngross and Schwarzhaupt, sold out to Schenley Distilleries. The brand names sold at that time included Old Charter, Cascade, and Echo Springs. In 1974, the 1,000,000th barrel of Old Charter was bottled and a case was given by the Governor of Kentucky (Wendell Ford) to the Governor of Texas (Dolph Briscoe) as a gift. In 1987, United Distillers acquired Schenley. In 1999, the Old Charter brand was purchased by the Sazerac Company from Diageo.
