Bib & Tucker Double Char Small Batch Bourbon Whiskey
The majority of meals was prepared over an open flame around the turn of the century. On their travels, people congregated "around the campfire" to cook, converse, interact, and enjoy small-batch bourbon. A hint of smoke and flame enhanced the meal, the stories, and the camaraderie. Bib & Tucker created a new properly aged bourbon with savory smoky flavors and a very smooth finish because we adore those days and that flavor. In the Tennessee hills, we first matured this for six years in fresh American oak, and then Bib & Tucker aged it once more in a second, deeply charred barrel. The smooth, rich, and vibrant flavor of Bib & Tucker Double Char is produced by this twice-barreled bourbon. Buy it now!
