Seelbach's Echo Double Oaked Bourbon Whiskey is a high-proof Kentucky bourbon that undergoes a secondary aging process in heavily charred oak barrels, delivering amplified vanilla, caramel, and spice notes at an assertive 110 proof in a convenient 50mL miniature format. This distinctive bourbon represents Seelbach's commitment to showcasing exceptional barrel-finished whiskeys. Bottled by Manifest Distilling in Jacksonville, Florida, but distilled in the heart of Kentucky's bourbon country, Echo demonstrates how additional oak aging can transform a traditional bourbon into something more complex and intense. The double oaking process allows the whiskey to extract deeper wood sugars and tannins, creating layers of flavor that unfold with each sip.
