They don't operate a distillery — they source and select mature Kentucky whiskey, then release it at barrel strength with no chill filtration. Sherri hand-labels every bottle, which is why the barrel number, bottle number, ABV and proof are written out by hand on the front.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 59.75% ABV, barrel #94 is the gentlest of the thirteen-year Old Carter single barrels we carry — a range that runs up past 123 proof. Lower proof on a long-aged barrel means the oak and dried fruit sit further forward, with less alcohol heat covering them up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dark caramel, vanilla bean, toasted oak, brown sugar, dried cherry and warm baking spice.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full-bodied and powerful — toffee, dark fruit, seasoned oak, vanilla, cinnamon and rich caramelized sugar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and warming, with lingering oak, dark sweetness, spice and vanilla.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Old Carter Whiskey Co.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRelease:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single barrel, barrel strength, non-chill filtered\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBarrel:\u003c\/strong\u003e 94\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof:\u003c\/strong\u003e 119.5 (59.75% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBottle:\u003c\/strong\u003e 129 of 136\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBottled in:\u003c\/strong\u003e Frankfort, Kentucky\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eExplore the full \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/old-carter\"\u003eOld Carter collection\u003c\/a\u003e or browse all \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/woodencork.com\/collections\/bourbon\"\u003ebourbon at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWho is behind Old Carter Whiskey Co.?\u003c\/strong\u003e Mark and Sherri Carter, the Napa winemakers behind Carter Cellars.
