Chattanooga Whiskey Straight Bourbon Whiskey 111 Proof
$51.99
Established in 2011 with the mindset to bring back “Whiskey to the People”, Chattanooga Whiskey was founded by Tim Piersant and Joe Ledbetter. After launching its 1816 branded whiskey in 2012, the company faced pushback due to where the product was originally manufactured (sourced through MGP/LDI of Indiana). Eventually, Chattanooga Whiskey became the catalyst for change, spreading public awareness and partitioning a change in Prohibition-ear distilling laws. This allowed for the opening of the first legal distillery in Chattanooga since Prohibition in 2015. This leader in innovation has since become an acclaimed brand of Tennessee high-malt bourbon and now offers several iterations of favored, award-winning whiskey including a line of experimental batches, single barrels, and bottled-in-bond bourbons. Without a doubt one of the most significant brands in Chatanooga’s history, Chattanooga Whisky continues to succeed as an iconic and respected whisky producer, coming full circle and proudly demonstrating its abilities to bring back whiskey to the people.

Description
Deep in the heart of Tennessee comes the beautiful and complex tones of Chattanooga Whiskey Co. Cask 111 straight bourbon whiskey – a pure Tennessee high malt fermented an extra 7 days over traditional whiskey. With a mash bill of yellow corn, malted rye, caramel malted barley, and honey malted barley, Cask 111 is aged for over 2 years in toasted and charred oak barrels and (true to its name) has an unfiltered cask strength of 111% proof. Released in 2019, Cask 111 straight bourbon has a limited release of between 6-10 barrels as a select distillation run. The nose is darkly hued with cocoa and sweet Tennessee tea over fruit cake. On the tongue, bite into chocolate nubs and cherries over oak.
