Chapter 7: In Retrospect image
Little Book Chapter 7: In Retrospect
Little Book Chapter 7, “In Retrospect,” is the seventh chapter in the Little Book Whiskey series. “In Retrospect” offers any curious whiskey drinker a chance to explore where American Whiskey can go by looking back to where it's been. Now, with six chapters written, the seventh chapter of Little Book pushes the story ahead, building on what's come before in ways not yet seen. Little Book Chapter 7 is a blend of seven different liquid streams, blending one liquid from each of the previous chapters, then adding a record seventh. “In Retrospect” is a nod to the past but also sets the course for what's next, not only for Little Book, but Freddie's continued journey as Eighth Generation Master Distiller of the Fred B. Noe Distillery. LITTLE BOOK “IN RETROSPECT” IS COMPOSED OF THE FOLLOWING LIQUID STREAMS: 18yrs Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, 17yrs Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, 10yrs Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey, 9yrs Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, 5yrs Straight Malt Whiskey finished in Applewood Smoked barrels, 4yrs Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, 4yrs Kentucky Straight Rye Whiskey.

Blanton's Straight from the Barrel
Not only one of the world's best bourbons, Blanton's Straight from the Barrel is one of the world's best whiskeys. Created for connoisseurs familiar with cask strength whiskeys, this enormous taste profile reaches depths of flavor found only in the rarest of spirits. On the nose we get notes of dark chocolate, caramel and butter with earthy undertones of walnut and hazelnut. The palate delivers intrepid notes of warm vanilla, oak, toasted nuts and a rich spiciness with hints of butterscotch or honey. The high alcohol by volume is intense and powerful yet inviting. The deep and resonate finish on this bourbon is nothing short of legendary. Straight from the barrel is best served neat or with a splash of water. Un-filtered, un-cut, unbelievable.

Part of the  The Sazerac Company family of brands.
Note: A very small quantity of whiskies came from this single barrel, so taste variability is higher than with larger production whiskies. Many times this is not a big deal (i.e. Blanton's), but sometimes it matters (i.e. Larceny Barrel Proof versions). If the specific barrel is not listed, ask your server or a store employee for more info.
