George Dickel Single Barrel 15 Year Old is a highly aged Tennessee whisky that offers exceptional value, typically retailing between $60 and $90. Produced at the Cascade Hollow Distillery in Tullahoma, Tennessee, this expression is charcoal-mellowed using the traditional Lincoln County Process before spending a minimum of 15 years in charred oak casks. Because it is a single-barrel release, every bottle features a unique profile, with alcohol by volume (ABV) ranging wildly depending on the specific barrel.
Profile and Specifications
- Mash Bill: Consists of 84% corn, 8% rye, and 8% malted barley.
- Age: Stated at a minimum of 15 years, though some custom store picks reach 17+ years.
- Proof Range: Variable from 80 to 104.6 proof, bottled close to its natural cask strength.
- Filtering: Bottled individually with minimal filtering and no chill-filtration.
Flavor Profile
The flavor profile is highly dependent on the individual barrel, but reviewers across the whiskey community highlight several consistent traits:
- The Nose: Dominated by rich caramel, toasted oak, vanilla custard, dried fruits, and a distinct cherry aroma resembling pull-apart licorice.
- The Palate: Full-bodied and chewy, featuring burnt sugar, crème brûlée, dark chocolate, baking spices (cinnamon, nutmeg), and sweet tobacco.
- The Finish: Long and warming, tapering off into lingering notes of leather, peppery spice, and cocoa.
- The "Dickel Note": Like most Cascade Hollow distillates, a signature flinty, mineral, or "vitamin" undertone is present. In these well-aged expressions, it is typically softened by heavy oak tannins, though it can still be polarizing for some drinkers.
