Rabbit Hole Founder's Collection Dareringer PX Sherry Cask Finish Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey 750ml
Rabbit Hole Founder's Collection Dareringer PX Sherry Cask Finish is a luxurious and meticulously crafted bourbon that showcases the artistry and innovation of Rabbit Hole Distillery. As part of the Founder's Collection, Dareringer represents a unique expression within the Rabbit Hole portfolio, combining traditional bourbon craftsmanship with an exquisite finishing process that elevates its complexity and flavor profile.
This Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is aged to perfection in new charred American oak barrels, allowing it to develop a robust and characteristically rich bourbon base. However, what truly sets Dareringer apart is its finishing process. After aging, the bourbon is transferred to hand-selected Pedro Ximénez (PX) sherry casks imported from Spain. These casks, known for their influence on fine sherry wines, impart a unique and luscious dimension to the bourbon.
On the nose, Rabbit Hole Dareringer reveals a captivating aroma of dried fruits, particularly raisins and dates, intertwined with rich notes of dark chocolate, caramel, and a touch of vanilla. The influence of the PX sherry casks is evident, adding layers of sweetness and complexity that are both inviting and intriguing.
The palate is where Dareringer truly shines. The initial sip is a harmonious blend of flavors that dance on the tongue. Rich notes of dark cherry, fig, and ripe plum are complemented by hints of cinnamon, nutmeg, and toasted oak. The PX sherry cask finish introduces a velvety smoothness and a sweetness reminiscent of honey and toffee, creating a balanced yet indulgent tasting experience.
The finish is long and elegant, with lingering notes of sweet sherry, dark chocolate, and a subtle spiciness that fades gently. The interplay between the bourbon's inherent warmth and the sweetness from the sherry casks creates a symphony of flavors that is both satisfying and memorable.
Rabbit Hole Founder's Collection Dareringer PX Sherry Cask Finish is a testament to the distillery's commitment to pushing the boundaries of traditional bourbon-making. By marrying Kentucky's rich bourbon heritage with the sophisticated influence of Spanish sherry casks, Rabbit Hole has created a whiskey that is both innovative and deeply rooted in tradition.

Whether enjoyed neat, on the rocks, or in an expertly crafted cocktail, Dareringer offers a unique and luxurious experience that is sure to impress even the most discerning whiskey connoisseurs.
