Parkers Heritage Collection 18th Edition 14 Year Malt Whiskey 750ML

Each year as part of the Parker’s Heritage Collection, we select a special Whiskey to be released in the name of our late Master Distiller Parker Beam. The barrels selected for this series include Bourbon, Rye, and Wheat Whiskeys, among others, and are some of the finest and most diverse American Whiskeys ever produced. They are a fitting tribute to the expertise of Parker Beam.

The 18th edition of the Parker’s Heritage Collection consists of 14-year-old Malt Whiskey aged in the upper floors of Rickhouses O and Q. Then, barrels that previously held Cognac were reconstructed to include a handful of new heavy toast staves. The Malt Whiskey was then rebarreled in the reconstructed barrels and aged for almost four months. Bottled at 107 proof without chill filtration, the rebarreling transforms the Malt Whiskey’s earthy, herbal characteristics into complex notes of molasses, dark chocolate, and dried summer fruit.

Color: Polished Teak
Nose: Oranges and summer fruit at first, then black, herbal tea. Dark chocolate and caramel.
Taste: Rich and velvety, like fine port. Molasses and bittersweet chocolate followed by cloves and nutmeg.
Finish: The molasses and chocolate notes fade to dried figs and apricots with a peppery tingle right at the end.
