First, we traditionally rest our bourbon in Charred New American White Oak barrels for a minimum of one year, developing sweet vanilla notes and a deep caramel tone. Then, through our patented Compression Finishing process, we add complexity and flavor using Spanish Sherry Oak Staves, the same wood used to craft the world's finest and rarest whiskies. This process uses cycles of heat and pressure to maximize the interaction of wood and spirit. The resulting whiskey is full of richness and flavor with notes of dried fruit, cherry, vanilla and spice. The result is Noble Oak: a Great Bourbon with a Noble Heart.
