Product Description

In 1874, Adam and Ben Chapeze created the new famous Old Charter whiskey brand. Named in honor of arguably the most well-known white oak tree in America, Old Charter Oak symbolizes the pivotal role that oak barrels play in the making of great American whiskey. Old Charter Oak reveals the hidden flavors in a wide array of oaks as they influence this diverse collection of bourbon whiskeys. Aged at Buffalo Trace Distillery, this Bourbon Whiskey is rich and sweet, drawing its character from barrels made of French Oak. An oak that has long been used for aging the world's finest wine, the tighter grain of French Oak imparts more subtle flavors and a silkier texture than its American counterpart. Harvested from the forests of France, this oak was seasoned outdoors before the wood was made into barrels that aged the unique whiskey that honors its French origin. Enjoy this tribute to French Oak, and raise a glass to its storied journey from forest, to barrel, to bourbon.

Dark manuka honey on the nose, alongside caramel and dried redcurrant. Notes of dark chocolate and dried tea come through on the palate, underpinned by rich dark fruit. Superbly long.

Stone fruits and fresh warm honey notes with a complex palate of citrus, light tropical characters and a hint of nuts that leads to an elegant warm and subtly spiced length.

Flavor scores are our estimates. A flavor scores higher when more critics mention it and when they describe it more strongly, so no single review sets the result. They are not a rating from any publication.
