Sensory Description:

The aroma layers maple, vanilla, cinnamon, caramel, and toasted oak, with the three finishing casks contributing distinct but integrated dimensions. The palate opens with rounded bourbon sweetness before settling into maple richness, baking spice, and creamy vanilla. Cinnamon brings warmth and definition through the mid-palate, while oak and caramel keep the profile grounded. The finish is smooth and persistent, carrying maple, vanilla, and gentle spice without losing the whiskey’s underlying structure.

Producer’s Background:

Branch & Barrel presents this release under a more descriptive name designed to communicate the whiskey’s defining character at a glance. Previously labeled Barrel Aged 3 Way, the whiskey is now identified as Spiced Maple Bourbon 3-Way Barrel Whiskey, while the finishing statement remains unchanged. The updated bottle emphasizes the relationship between bourbon and its cinnamon, vanilla, and maple syrup cask finishes, offering greater clarity without suggesting a change to the liquid or its established tasting experience.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve at 16 to 20 degrees Celsius in a Glencairn, copita, or rocks glass to highlight the layered maple, vanilla, cinnamon, and oak character. Enjoy neat, with a small splash of water, or over one large cube. Its spiced sweetness also works well in an Old Fashioned or a spirit-forward maple whiskey cocktail. Pair with smoked pork, roasted pecans, aged cheddar, bread pudding, apple desserts, or dark chocolate.
