New Louisville Barrel House Hazmat Hero 9 Year Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
Power, Age and Bold Kentucky Spirit – New Louisville Barrel House Hazmat Hero 9-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey
New Louisville Barrel House Hazmat Hero 9-Year-Old Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey is a high-proof, intensely flavored expression from New Louisville Whiskey Co., a brand known for its bold, small-batch bourbons and single-barrel releases. Aged nine years in new charred American oak barrels and bottled at 140.6 proof (70.3 % ABV), this “Hazmat Hero” bourbon earns its name by exceeding the 140-proof threshold, delivering an unapologetically powerful and richly concentrated bourbon experience.
Tasting Experience:
Appearance: Deep amber with warm copper hues that reflect both extended barrel aging and rich oak influence.
Nose: Bold aromas of caramelized sugar, seasoned oak, buttered vanilla, and deep spice lead the way, with hints of brown sugar, toasted nuts, and subtle dried fruit that announce its age and proof.
Palate: Full-bodied and concentrated with layers of rich caramel, toasted oak, baking spices, vanilla, and brown sugar. The high proof brings structured intensity, balanced by nuanced sweetness and classic Kentucky bourbon flavors.
Finish: Long and warming with lingering oak spice, sweet vanilla, and a subtle hint of heat that persists without overwhelming, highlighting its maturity and concentrated character.
