11th Annual Limited Edition Small Batch Blend Features Straight Bourbon Whiskeys from Seven U.S. States, New Label Design
Louisville, KY (November 9, 2026) – Barrell Craft Spirits® (BCS), the original independent blender of unique aged, cask strength whiskey since 2013, today released its 11th annual limited edition Barrell Bourbon New Year 2027. The blend of whiskeys was distilled in Indiana (7, 8, 9 & 10-year), Kentucky (7 & 8-year), Tennessee (10 & 16-year), Wyoming (13-year), Maryland (7 & 8-year), Texas (5-year) and Ohio (5-year), and highlights a derived mash bill of 73% corn, 22% rye, 4% malted barley, and 1% wheat.
Barrell Bourbon New Year 2027, which features a new label design, is a celebratory release crafted to mark the arrival of a new year with an exceptional bourbon experience. This annual, small-batch blend unites a variety of bourbons—each with distinct ages, mash bills, and geographic origins from across the U.S.—resulting in a uniquely layered and complex American whiskey. A favorite among collectors, the New Year series showcases Barrell Craft Spirits’ mastery in blending and commitment to innovation.
This year’s expression exudes an aroma that captures fall days picking apples, complete with hayrides, dusty barns, and freshly pressed cider. The palate reveals the depth of the older barrels in the blend, layering rich root beer, earthy tea, and seasoned oak.
Barrell Bourbon New Year 2027 is available for purchase online via the BCS website at barrellbourbon.com and at select retailers for the suggested retail price of $84.99 per 750ml bottle. The expression was expertly blended and bottled in Kentucky at 116.6 proof (58.3% ABV).
