Port Cask Finished Bourbon Batch No. 5 Launch, with help from some friends..


Check out this video from β€ͺ@badaxebourbon‬ and β€ͺ@TheDirtyRCBar‬ for a behind the scenes look at our latest limited release whiskey, Port Cask Finished Straight Bourbon, Batch No. 5. Filmed on-site at Sabbatical with our team featuring plenty of whiskey debate, tasting notes and good times.

Our latest release of this often sold out barrel finished whiskey style is full of complexity both in profile and the process that led us here. Batch #5 is bottled at 47.5% ABV / 95 Proof and includes multiple bourbon barrels with similar yet unique journeys, including the introduction of a Triple Oak cask! The backbone of this limited bottling features bourbon that was aged first in a New American Oak cask for over 5 years followed by 5 months in a French Oak ex-Port cask and then went into an all-new charred American Oak barrel for 6 months of maturation before bottling for a total barrel aging period of over 6 years.

This is a limited whiskey expression that you need to try for yourself. Dig into the details with some bourbon aficionados in this special launch episode.

Cheers πŸ₯ƒπŸ₯ƒ

Batch No. 6 - Limited Release

Aged over 7 years and bottled at 90 Proof, say hello to our oldest barrel finished whiskey yet. Batch No. 6 is a very limited expression of Sabbatical Straight Bourbon aged in a combination of hand-selected new American oak barrels & French oak casks that previously held tawny port.

Luxuriously smooth with notes of rich honey vanilla, dark oak with a hint of tart cherries and cinnamon spice, complemented by a velvety mouthfeel & deep ruby hue thanks to an in-depth barrel finishing experience. Complex and bursting with flavor, our latest batch of this popular cask finished style is a true sipping whiskey ready to enjoy for the season.

Each batch of this premium expression is made by hand from select barrels that are carefully blended and proofed to allow the maximum flavor to shine in every bottle, representing a singular moment in time where the influence of distinct styles & wood combine for added layers of depth & nuance.
