Chattanooga Whiskey Founder’s 13th Anniversary Blend
Curated every year by the company’s founder, Tim Piersant, this new whiskey release is a blend of three solera-aged whiskeys. The first whiskey included is 1816 (23% of the blend), the smallest of the brand’s solera barrels. This high-rye bourbon is matured between four and six years and is known for its wood and spice flavors.
The second whiskey included is Barrel 91 (58% of the blend), a high-malt whiskey known for its high malt depth and complexity. The last whiskey included is Infinity Barrel (19% of the blend), a blend of malt and rye whiskeys known for their toasted rye malt flavor.
According to the brand, blending these three solera-aged whiskeys results in a multilayered, complex whiskey known for its flavors of red rope licorice, grilled peaches, brown sugar, cherry cola, and toasted marshmallows.
“Those who make it to our Founder’s Party each year know firsthand how different each solera barrel is from one another. From the traditional essence of ‘1816’ to the high-malt heritage of ‘91’ to the expressive and ever-changing ‘Infinity,’ each barrel provides Tim a range of options for blending.” – Grant McCracken, Founding Distiller, CPO says.
