#14 Whisky of the Year 2021 The Whisky Advocate

Batch #24
This Tennessee bourbon’s packaging has an old-school look and name (referring to dressing up, perhaps in your Sunday best), but in reality it’s rather new, first brought to market in 2014. Despite its lack of pedigree, at 6 years old this is lip-smacking whiskey, with a color of caramel, and an alluring aroma of sweet baking spices. There are bold, bracing tannins of cigar box and menthol that balance out the heavy sweetness of orange jam and long-stewed fruit. Intense, tasty, no-nonsense bourbon. —David Savona

“the six-year-aged bourbon has a nose of antiques, new saddle leather, chamomile- soaked butterscotch drops and warm cinnamon- kissed cedar.”

Bib & Tucker 6 Year Double Char Bourbon...$38.99
Compare to $53.99 at Total Wine and More (price checked 3/10/25)

Inspired by the turn of the century, when food was cooked on the open flame, this new bourbon is aged twice to create savory smoky notes and an exceptionally smooth finish. Bib & Tucker Double Char is first aged for six years in the rolling hills of Tennessee in new white American oak, followed by a minimum of five months in a second heavily charred and smoked new barrel. This unique fire-forged double char aging method creates the rich and deep flavor of Bib & Tucker Double Char.
Aroma - A touch of smoke with immediate notes of toasted oak and dulce de leche, background notes of cinnamon and clove.
Taste - Vanilla and sugar maple surrounded with white smoke, hints of sweet corn and toasted cinnamon.
Finish - Medium to long finish with oak, white smoke and vanilla.
