andover – Redstone Liquors https://dev.redstoneliquors.com Fri, 20 Sep 2019 15:32:56 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.8 Elijah Craig 8 year Single Barrel Redstone Barrel Society https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/elijah-craig-8-year-single-barrel-redstone-barrel-society/ Fri, 20 Sep 2019 15:32:56 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=17473

So excited to announce the arrival of our Elijah Craig Single barrel bourbon. This particular barrel was rested for 8 years in Rickhouse EE on the 6th floor. (one of our favorite warehouses so no surprise it outshined the other 9 and 10 year old barrels that we put against it) It rang in at a monster 133 proof out of the cask before being proofed down to 94 at bottling.

Of all the Elijah Craig barrels we had tasted on this trip this one was a clear cut winner. Boasting a heavy dose of nutty caramel on the nose, a mouthful of cherries on the palate and a slightly sweet dusting of baking spice and stone fruits on the long long finish, this is the perfect accompaniment to a crisp fall night or a decadent treat after dinner.

Bottles go on Sale for $34.99/750ml at 1pm At both Redstone Locations as well as a small amount at Framingham Liquors. Our other Redstone Barrel Society stores (Kelly Square Worcester, Nobscot wine & Spirits, and Conti Liquors will have very small amounts avail tomorrow morning)

This is also the 2nd Barrel in our Infinity Redstone series and has our Waxed Yellow stone on the back of each bottle. Collect the entire lineup in the Gauntlet and you will get awarded Bonus Tickets in our Annual Whiskey draft later this year for your crack at getting your hands on some of the most sought after whiskey on the planet.

Redstone Barrel Society Four Roses OESV Single barrel bourbon https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/redstone-barrel-society-four-roses-oesv-single-barrel-bourbon/ Tue, 30 Jul 2019 02:41:19 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=17409

We are excited to announce the arrival of our hand selected single barrel of Four Roses bourbon! This barrel happens to also be one of our favorite recipes, OESV. The OESV recipe mingles four roses high corn (75%) mash bill with the “V” yeast strain which according to four roses is known to produce a delicate fruit profile.

This barrel in particular exudes tons of vanilla and slight toasted caramel reminiscent of a rich crème brûlée. Let it breath for a moment and revisit to find notes of dark cherry lingering on the long finish. Mouthfeel for days and rings in at a modest 112.4 proof with very minimal heat. Should also note this barrel was also bottled a couple of weeks shy of its 10th birthday and came from warehouse LE which is especially known for its spectacular liquid.

This selection will also be the first barrel of our Gauntlet series. Select Redstone barrel society barrels this year will be part of this series. Each bottle will come with a unique color “Infinity Redstone” wax seal on the side along with a sticker identifying the unique stone on our RL gauntlet.

Only 96 Bottles will go on sale at 1pm this Wednesday July 31st at our Stoneham location for $79.99/750ml and will be limited to 1 bottle per person. Anyone who supports our barrel program by purchasing one of our other Redstone barrel society single barrels currently in stock will be allocated a 2nd bottle to purchase.

Virginia Distillery RED WINE cask finished Whiskey (Redstone Barrel Society Selection) https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/virginia-distillery-red-wine-cask-finished-whiskey-redstone-barrel-society-selection/ Sat, 29 Sep 2018 02:37:56 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=17066  

Excited to announce the arrival of our latest Redstone Barrel Society Whiskey! This time we teamed up with Virginia Distillery to bring you Another rare and unique offering.

Last Month we released our Coffee cask finished highland malt whiskey. This time we took the same whiskey and instead finished it in a french red wine barrel. Same whiskey completely different flavor profile.

Their Virginia-Highland Whisky (which is made from 100% malted barley, marrying whisky from Scotland with whisky made on-site in Virginia) was then finished in French red wine casks! The result is fantastic but still real distinct from the last cask we had finished from them, This scotch style whiskey has a nuanced character with notes of dark fruits, raisins, plums and slight strawberry. Bottles are $59.99/750ml and available at both Redstone Liquors Locations as well at at our friends at framingham liquors and Nobscot wine & spirits!

Cheers

We are excited to announce the arrival of our Knob Creek Single barrel RYE Whiskey! This is only one of a handful of barrels to hit the state of MA ever!

New to Knob Creek this Single barrel program lets us hand select special barrels, we then taste at cask strength as well as proof them down to 115 proof. The particular barrel that we have selected was 128.8 proof out of the gate, it started and finished off HOT!

Proofing this down to 115 opened up the aromatics displaying sweet cherry and toffee notes it also dissipated the heat leaving us with a Rye Whiskey that still has a chewy and vicious mouthfeel with soft rye spice in the front, sweet and delicate cherry and dark chocolate notes creep up in the back palate and linger throughout the finish making you crave that next sip.

The barrel yield was limited to only 180 bottles so stock up and enjoy while supplies last!

This Redstone barrel Society selection retails for $52.99/750ml and is available at the following locations:

Redstone Liquors Stoneham
Redstone Liquors Andover
Nobscot Wine and Spirits (Framingham)
Framingham Liquors
Kelly Square Liquors Worcester

Redstone Barrel Society Patron Añejo Single Barrel Tequila https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/redstone-barrel-society-patron-anejo-single-barrel-tequila/ Fri, 27 Apr 2018 16:01:55 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=16968       

We are happy to announce the arrival of our single barrel of Patron Añejo Tequila. Earlier this year we flew out to the Patron facility in Jalisco Mexico to not only see how their handcrafted tequila is made but to also sample a variety of different single barrels.

At Patron they preach consistency and obtain that by blending different barrels by hand to make sure the tequila that you are enjoying is the same experience time and time again. What we aimed to do is give you the exact opposite. While still maintaining the high quality that is Patron’s signature, we were able to select a barrel that we felt was different from their everyday offering. This Añejo was aged in French and American oak for a long 31 months (almost extra Anejo territory 36mo) and is limited to 180 bottles.

This barrel boasts notes of Vanilla, Citrus, Golden Raisin and baking spices. Medium bodied with a creamy texture and virtually no heat in the finish but instead a pleasant candied sweet vanilla coating left on your lips awaiting the next sip. Versatile enough to mix but recommended neat or with a cube. Decant for 10-15 minutes to accentuate the sweeter notes. Cube will constrict the sweet and bring forward more the baking spice notes.

Cost: $59.99/750ML
Available at Redstone Liquors Stoneham and Andover locations while supplies last.

Redstone Barrel Society Custom blend of Cazadores Tequila https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/redstone-barrel-society-custom-blend-of-cazadores-tequila/ Tue, 03 Apr 2018 23:31:21 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=16948

Last October the Redstone barrel society took a trip to Mexico to visit Tequila Cazadores we not only got to shave some agave and taste some world class Tequilla but also got to work with their master distiller to make our one of a kind blend of Tequila.

We are happy to announce after a long and torturous wait, our custom blend of Tequila Cazadores has finally landed! We blended añejo with different reposado tequilas (some housed in older barrels and some in new ones) the result was well worth the wait. Mild notes of peppery spice from the reposado barrels take over the front palate while sweet candied vanilla from the Anejo takes over an ever-long finish leaving you salivating for the next sip. We know you will enjoy this as much as we do! Cheers

Our custom blend is available at the following Redstone Barrel Society locations for $28.99/750ML bottle.

Framingham Liquors
Conti Liquors Framingham

Knob Creek Single barrel aged 13Years & 8months Redstone Barrel Society exclusive (Sold out) https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/knob-creek-single-barrel-aged-13years-8months-redstone-barrel-society-exclusive/ Wed, 18 Oct 2017 18:02:04 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=16845 Knob Creek Single Barrel Redstone Barrel Society Exclusive

We are proud to welcome the arrival of our latest Redstone Barrel Society Single barrel Bourbon. This Knob Creek single barrel was hand selected in Kentucky for you from us. It has been resting on the 4th floor, Rick 6, Tier 3 in warehouse W since November 14th of 2003 (Bottled at 13 years and 8 months!). Right from the barrel this Bourbon yields a high 134.3 proof, however before bottling these were proofed down to 120 proof to dissipate the heat but preserve the weighty mouthfeel.

Tasting notes:

Nose: Oak and spice accompanied by a harem of ripe cherries with slight hints of caramel and vanilla

Palate: Loads of dark chocolate, baking spice and stewed cherries all intermingle on the front palate. Reminiscent of a baked cherry pie dusted in thick layer of mocha.

Finish: Leaves you with a long woodsy fall spice and mouthful of cherries for days.
