ASF Angel Barrel Bourbon 

December 1, 2023

The Autism Strong Angel Barrel was hand-selected by a panel of bourbon aficionados from the ASF Board of Directors. It’s a beautiful combination of two barrels of Oaklore’s North Carolina Bourbon.  Matt and Tom from Oaklore love their corn, so it’s dialed up on this one to a mash bill of 80% corn, 10% rye, and 10% malted barley.  Its sweetness comes through right away in a very smooth and easy dram. This bourbon is a mouth-watering pour that will make any level of bourbon drinker happy. In addition, this bourbon supports a great North Carolina nonprofit.  On the nose: brown sugar, maple nut. Next up, the palette is vanilla snickerdoodle and dark caramel.  The medium finish is Nutella and sweet tobacco. Oaklore and ASF are so proud of this bottle, and can’t wait to hear how you enjoy it. Whether it’s poured neat, over ice, or in a cocktail, this 93-proof Oaklore bourbon is simply fantastic! Profits from each bottle will be donated directly to Autism Strong Foundation. *Limited quantities available*
