Heaven Hill Distillery is proud to announce the 2020 limited edition release of Parkers Heritage Collection 10 Year Old Heavy Char Bourbon.
Parkers Heritage Collection is a hallmark lineup of Heaven Hill Distillerys exploration in premium innovation. The 14th edition continues the interaction of barrel char across varying mashbills, this time with Heaven Hills traditional Bourbon mashbill of 78% corn, 12% malted barley and 10% rye. The Bourbon is aged in Level 5 heavy char barrels, as opposed to our customary Level 3, and the resulting flavors carry intensified notes of our traditional Bourbon. Consisting of 102 barrels aged on the sixth floor of rickhouse Y for 10 years, the heavy char brings forth a caramel and maple sweetness, as well as slight smokiness developed after 40 Kentucky seasons in the barrel.
The second heavy char edition of the series advances the study of how a more intense char allows the liquid to penetrate deeper into each barrel stave and the effects on the resulting flavor. Bottled at 120 proof (60% abv) and non-chill filtered to preserve all the flavor compounds, this Bourbon showcases the broad range of Heaven Hill Distillerys 1.8 million barrels of aging inventory.
The Parkers Heritage Collection is a testament to the attention to detail crafted throughout Heaven Hills distilling legacy, said Susan Wahl, Vice President, American Whiskeys at Heaven Hill Distillery. It is an honor to continue Parkers interest in innovation through this series and showcase the variety of Heaven Hill Distillerys portfolio. It is in tribute to Parker and his legacy that we continue to support ALS research and patient care with this series.
