Drunken Sailor (Cognac Barrel Aged)
Already formidable in its base form, Drunken Sailor becomes something truly transcendent after months resting in white oak barrels that once held cognac. The reiterated mash and massive malt bill provide the foundation—dense layers of plums, raisins, molasses, and caramelized sugars—but the barrel aging imparts elegant notes of vanilla, toasted oak, and a whisper of brandy warmth.
