Shortbarrel El Jefe American Straight Whiskey Finished in Ex-Reposado Mezcal Barrels
Shortbarrel El Jefe American Straight Whiskey Finished in Ex-Reposado Mezcal Barrels
This Kentucky American straight whiskey stands apart through a 1.5-year finish in ex-reposado mezcal barrels. Aged over 7 years and bottled at cask strength, Shortbarrel El Jefe brings the whiskey and its finishing cask together without diluting the barrel proof.
Vanilla and sweet corn give the whiskey a familiar sweetness, while charred orange adds a darker citrus edge. Pepper and cinnamon spice provide warmth, with smoke and herbs lending a savory note against the oak. Honey rounds out the profile without covering the spice. The 750 mL size makes this a straightforward option for sipping neat, over ice, or in a whiskey-forward cocktail where its citrus, smoke, and spice can remain clear.
