Excited to announce the arrival of our Redstone Barrel Society Eagle Rare single barrel Bourbon. Full disclosure this year due to factors out of our control we were not able to taste this particular barrel before authorizing its release. Instead we gave a known and trusted member of Buffalo trace barrel program whom we have tasted with before our tasting notes and requirements so that they could hunt down a barrel that fulfilled the criteria of being a Redstone barrel society pick. He did not disappoint.

Tasting notes: Sweet nose of vanilla and oak with some maple syrup with slight stone fruit. Initial sip bold mouthfeel that coats the glass, Mouth full of cherry and vanilla run up to the front (think Dr Pepper soda) leaving behind a dry finish of baking spice reminiscent of grandmas oatmeal raisin cookies.

Yield: 6 bottles of 1.75ml and 144 bottles of 750ml
Warehouse O floor 5
Barreled 3/4/09 (11.5 year)

Available today at both Redstone liquors locations on RedstoneLiquors.com and Redstone Liquors App while supplies last. (Andover later in evening) $34.99/750ml

Redstone Barrel Society Eagle Rare Single barrel Bourbon https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/redstone-barrel-society-eagle-rare-single-barrel-bourbon/ Tue, 28 Jan 2020 17:51:53 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=17626

Excited to announce the arrival of our hand selected single barrel of Eagle Rare Bourbon. In 2018 The distillery decided not to send any single barrels out to the entire country because of supply issues so this will be out first barrel since then. Eagle rare is always one of our favorite barrels to pick and this one does not disappoint.

On first impression notes of thick caramel and vanilla bean dominate the nose. Mouthfeel is weighty and lush bringing way to more caramel, dark chocolate and stone fruit with a slight toffee backing reminiscent of a cadbury fruit and nut bar. Slight burnt toffee along with hints of cherry and some baking spice round out the finish making you long for that next sip.

Bottles are available now at our stoneham location and will be available on January 29th in Andover.

$34.99/750ML

Cheers!

Redstone Exclusive: Mystic Last & Final Judgement https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/redstone-exclusive-mystic-last-final-judgement/ Thu, 31 Mar 2016 20:41:12 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=14973 IMG_20160331_163612

We are happy to announce the release of our latest Redstone Exclusive beer! Mystic Brewing last and Final judgement.

Mystic brewing took our hand selected 4 roses and buffalo trace bourbon barrels and aged their award winning belgian quadrupel (Day of doom) in them for over a full year. The result is an amazing 11% belgian quad that boasts flavors of raisin, plum & dates and marries them with vanilla, and toasted coconut on the finish. The lighter carbonation of this release makes for a silky body with a creamy mouthfeel that is great on its own but will pair wonderfully with your favorite dessert.

Quantities are limited so swing down to either our Andover or Stoneham Locations to get your bottles today.

Bottles will go on sale Friday April 1st @ 3pm at both locations.

Cheers!

Redstone Exclusive Blantons Single Barrel Bourbon https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/redstone-exclusive-blantons-single-barrel-bourbon-2/ Tue, 01 Dec 2015 21:44:53 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=14256 Unknown

 

Once again happy to announce the arrival of our hand selected single barrel of Blanton’s Bourbon. These arrived just in time for our annual whiskey raffle. As a celebration we will be offering 3 raffle tickets on the 750ml bottles form this Redstone hand selected Blanton’s barrel.

Here are some tasting notes from our Redstone Exclusive barrel
Nose: A spicy aroma of Dried Citrus and Orange Peels with a burst of Caramel and hint of Vanilla.

Palate Entry: Full bodied, marked by a mix of Burnt Sugar, Caramel, Toasted Vanilla Orange, and Cloves.

Finish: Balanced with Vanilla, Honey, and slight Citrus.

Best Served: Any way you like it…Straight, on ice, or used in a premium cocktail.

The finest bourbon in the world comes from a single barrel. That’s the way Colonel Albert B. Blanton first bottled his private reserve bourbon nearly a century ago. Blanton believed the “center-cut” or middle sections of Warehouse H were the best for aging his bourbon. Personally tasting and choosing each barrel, these barrels were reserved and bottled for ambassadors, dignitaries, family and friends becoming the world’s first single barrel bourbon. His time honored tradition lives on today as only a handful of barrels from the center of Warehouse H are selected to become Blanton’s Single Barrel Bourbon.

2015 Whiskey Raffle Draft. https://dev.redstoneliquors.com/2015-whiskey-raffle-draft/ Mon, 23 Nov 2015 17:56:35 +0000 http://www.redstoneliquors.com/?p=14212 Whiskey-glasses

Details of this year’s annual Whiskey draft!

It’s every whiskey drinker’s favorite time of year. When many of the best-known distilleries around the US release their flagships, not to mention some of the highest rated whiskies start hitting the shelves. The only issue is there is never enough of these releases to go around. Our solution is the Whiskey Draft raffle.

With the success and the fun of past years drafts we have once again decided this to be the best and most fair way of rewarding our customers with a chance of scoring some of this rare whiskey (at MSRP)

Whiskey week (as we like to call it) will start on Black Friday (November 27th) and will run though (Friday)December 4th.
Rules: For every bottle of 750ml whiskey purchased at Redstone Liquors (Andover or Stoneham) during Whiskey week you will receive one raffle ticket (all same raffle)…

For every bottle of 750s from one of our many Redstone Exclusive single barrel picks you will get 2 raffle tickets: (while supplies last)

BONUS: Any bottles purchased on Black Friday will get 2 tickets per 750ml and 3 tickets for a Redstone barrel pick.

Some of this years Redstone Exclusive barrels include:

Eagle Rare 10 Year,
1792,
Whistle Pig Rye,
Glendalough Triple Barrel
Old Weller Antique 107 (eta Black Friday) – not confirmed but expected to be avail
Blanton’s (eta Black Friday)- not confirmed but expected to be avail
Buffalo Trace (eta Black Friday)- not confirmed but expected to be avail
On December 7th we will draw from the stack of raffle tickets collected to create a Draft order. First overall pick gets their pick of which whiskey they wish to purchase from the pool. Second pick get to chose from the pool of whats left and so on…

The more tickets you have in, the better your chance to get a spot… But note you can only win once. If we draw your name multiple times you will get moved up in the list. (the folks with the most tickets drawn will move up in the draft based on number of time we pull their ticket). For those that only get picked once your spot on the list depends on the order it was picked.

When called you must make your pick while on the phone with us so that we can contact the next in line with what is avail to them. If messages are not returned the same day we must move forward in the list until you call us back. If calls are not returned for 2 days you will lose your spot in the draft.

There will be a chalkboard of all available whiskeys in the pool waiting to be drafted and how many bottles of each posted in store during whiskey week, this list will not be posted online so swing on though and get your tickets today.

Some of the rare whiskeys that will be in this years raffle include: (total of 74 bottles)
