124.42 Proof · 8 Years, 9 Months
Rare Character “Barrel Heads of Constant Sorrow”
ABH pick No. 6—constant character, no sorrow.
ABH pick No. 6 is Rare Character barrel N21-065, selected with Purspirit. Aged 8 years and 9 months and bottled at 62.21% ABV and 124.42 proof, “Barrel Heads of Constant Sorrow” releases Wednesday, September 23.
This bottle is everything a great Rare Character selection should be. Vanilla and mature oak lead the way, followed by rich toffee and a full, coating mouthfeel with legs for days.
The finish is the payoff: long, balanced, and satisfying, letting the vanilla, oak, and toffee linger without rushing the experience.
The artwork sends the ABH crew into O Brother, Where Art Thou? territory, with a barrel-head trio gathered around the old microphone and raccoons working the banjo, fiddle, and washboard. The pick has been announced and will be released Wednesday, September 23.
