2024 Vault

Vault Series

The Vault Series is a collection of offshoot experiments, alternate concepts, and rare single barrels - culled from our barrelhouse vault. These archived versions of bygone whiskeys are expressions of both nostalgia and discovery - each one offering a glimpse into our distilling team’s innovation and creative process. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

Selected once a year by our distilling team and bottled in 375ml bottles, these ultra-limited whiskeys are one-of-a-kind artifacts of Chattanooga Whiskey history – and a rare chance to rediscover your favorite recipes and batches from year's past.

This years's array of single barrels revisits one of our rarest Experimental Batches - Batch 002: Smoked High Malt - originally released in 2017. As a series, these barrels highlight multiple varieties of malted barley, which were smoked over 3 different wood sources: mesquite, apple, and cherry wood.
