This bourbon is versatile at 90 proof – enjoy it neat to appreciate the single barrel character, with a splash of water to open up the aromatics, or on the rocks. Its balanced proof makes it approachable straight while maintaining cocktail strength.

The Barrel Seekers program focuses on individual cask selection rather than batch blending, meaning each bottle represents a unique barrel chosen for exceptional quality. The high-rye mash bill also sets it apart from corn-forward Indiana bourbons.

Is Whiskey Jypsi Barrel Seekers worth the price?
