Process & Profile
The "Colombian Bam Dram" starts with an exceptional 10-year Kentucky bourbon base, which provides profound structure, oak maturity, and dark barrel character. Instead of bottling it right away, Nulu rested this bourbon for an additional 1 year and 1 month in a maple brûlée cask.
This extended finishing process deepens the whiskey rather than flattening it into a simple, one-dimensional sweetness. The result is a highly layered, sweet-savory profile boasting extra depth, richer caramelized sugars, and toasted maple notes. As a true single barrel release, Barrel B1051 carries a distinct identity that beautifully bridges the gap between mature, traditional bourbon and innovative specialty cask finishing.

How to Enjoy
To fully appreciate the age and barrel-specific character of the Nulu "Colombian Bam Dram", we recommend enjoying it neat first. Allow the whiskey to rest in the glass for several minutes to open up the complex aromatics of toasted sugar, vanilla, and developed maple. Adding a few drops of water can help widen the nose and soften the richer sweetness on the palate. This is also an excellent pour to taste side-by-side with a standard Nulu bourbon to truly understand the profound impact of the 10-year age statement and the maple brûlée finish.
