Michigan’s Round Barn Distillery is well-known for its popular whiskeys, including Baroda Straight Bourbon. Recently, the brand announced it was set to add to its portfolio of whiskeys this week. But it isn’t just adding one unique whiskey. It’s adding two.

Round Barn Distillery’s new releases

The two new releases are highly creative and will surely be a hit with fans of this brand. They are Maple Bourbon and Port Barrel Finished Bourbon. According to Round Barn, the Maple Bourbon begins as a classic bourbon whiskey flavored with maple’s natural essence. This creates a complex, memorable whiskey filled with flavors like caramel, vanilla, maple candy, and toasted oak. The brand suggests sipping it neat slowly while sitting by a fireplace, at an outdoor campfire, or in your favorite cocktail.

According to the brand, the Port Barrel Finished Bourbon is a nuanced, “sophisticated” take on the classic bourbon. Finished in port barrels, the result is a multi-layered whiskey centered on flavors like dark cherries, figs, and gentle spices. Just like you’d enjoy a fine glass of port wine after a heavy meal, you should treat this rich, memorable whiskey the same way.

“These new bourbons reflect our passion for pushing the boundaries of craft spirits,” says Robbie, our head distiller at Round Barn Distillery.

“With our Baroda Straight Bourbon as the foundation, we wanted to explore new depths of flavor, and these two releases bring something truly special to the table.”
