Product Description

Born in 1853 from the son of an architect and master craftsman, Thomas S. Moore surmounted countless challenges in building his bourbon empire. Moore began making whiskey at what would become Barton 1792 Distillery in Bardstown, Kentucky in 1889. His distillery flourished, and Bardstown is now the Bourbon Capital of the World. Much like the Belle of Nelson, Moore's original bourbon brand paying tribute to the rearing racehorse, his legacy lives on today through his namesake brand. Made at the very same distillery with mineral-rich water from the Tom Moore spring, this Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey finished in Cabernet Sauvignon casks honors Moore's relentless ambition and his commitment to crafting bourbon whiskey that stands for the test of time. This well-aged Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey was emptied from its oak casks after many years of aging, and then refilled in Cabernet Sauvignon wine casks, left to mature for several more years. The taste is bold, with notes of dark fruit, caramel and vanilla -- a tribute to the early bourbon aristocrat, Thomas S. Moore.

What critics and judges wrote

IWSC judges · Gold · 2023
Subtle aroma characteristics of cereal and earthy notes shining through on the light and balanced nose combining on the palate with spices, fruitiness and chocolate flavours … good progression and, overall, well balanced with a nice finish.

Flickers of fudge and caramel over a rich cereal nose. Candied lime and orange shine over a creamy and zesty palate. A sappy texture that transitions to woody notes on a long, elegant finish.
Silver · 92 pts2024iwsc.net ↗
Rich cinnamon pastry and marzipan aromas lead to a broad palate with oak dominance. Despite a slight lack of balance, the warming finish is pleasant. Mustard and pickles emerge, followed by a curious yet satisfying cheese note.
Whisky Advocate · Susannah Skiver Barton · 2021
The palate is light-bodied by comparison, but still deeply enticing with Concord grapes, mint leaves, blackberry cobbler, toasted nuts, cherry cough syrup, cacao nibs, and herbaceous oak.

Distiller · Amanda Schuster
There is a distinct grapey-ness that mixes in with the roasted cereal components … It's a dessert bourbon for sure, but it would also make a seriously decadent base for a Manhattan.

World Whiskies Awards judges · Silver · 2023
Aromas of peaches, apricots, and milk chocolate lead to a palate of chocolate, cherry, sultanas, golden syrup, vanilla, and grape skin tannins. This lingers onto a warm and oaky finish highlighted by hints of caramel.
