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 year's series of "long finish" single barrels revisits three of our most beloved finished bourbons. By extending their finishing time to 4-5 years, this allows each bourbon to absorb flavors from the finishing barrel more dramatically.
Single Barrel, Apricot Brandy Barrel Finished
Origin Code: B017
Origin Recipe: Batch 017
Vault Revision(s): Column Distilled, Long Finish
Age: 7 Years Old
Finish Length: 5 years
Proof: 132 (66% Alc/Vol)
Batch Size: 1 Barrel
Barreled On: April 2018
Hang Tag: Finished for over 5 years in apricot brandy barrels from The Republic of Türkiye, our signature 91 mash bill seamlessly blends with the characteristics of the fruit brandy to create a rich, chewy profile of apricot tarte tatin, orange marmalade, and jasmine, with a stewed fruit palate and lingering maraschino finish.
Single Barrel, Tequila Barrel Finished
Origin Code: B018
Origin Recipe: EXP Batch 018
Vault Revision(s): Column Distilled, Long Finish
Age: 7 Years Old
Finish Length: 5 years
Proof: 123.2 (61.6% Alc/Vol)
Batch Size: 1 Barrel
Barreled On: March 2018
Hang Tag: Finished for over 5 years in extra añejo Tequila barrels from Mexico, this finish results in a delightful harmony between the earthy spice of the agave and the confectionary character of our signature 91 mash bill. Expect initial notes of banana bread, crème brûlée, and cut grass that develop into dried mango and milk chocolate with a dry, herbal finish.
Single Barrel, Sauternes Barrel Finished
Origin Code: B027
Origin Recipe: EXP Batch 027
Vault Revision(s): Column Distilled, Long Finish
Age: 7 Years Old
Finish Length: 4 years
Proof: 128 (64% Alc/Vol)
Batch Size: 1 Barrel
Barreled On: October 2018
Hang Tag: Finished for over 4 years in Sauternes barrels from France, our signature 91 mash bill merges with this dessert wine made from grapes influenced by a famous fungus known as "noble rot”. This process - which naturally concentrates the sugar in the grapes - results in a very pretty white peach and wildflower honey nose that belies the robust palate of dried fruit, dark tannins, and lemon cake.
