A fantastic blend of rye and wheat you should have in your collection

History

This is the first time Lux Row Distillers has released this ryed and wheated bourbon.

Name & Packaging

Both the name, as well as the packaging, of this bourbon could lead to a little confusion. The name “Double Single Barrel” refers to the fact that this bourbon is a blend of only two barrels. The packaging is almost identical to the highly sought after and limited Lux Row 12 Year Double Barrel Bourbon. So be sure to carefully read the label.

Mash Bill

Blend of wheated bourbon and “rye” bourbon with no specific mash bill information provided

Tasting Notes – Lux Row Four Grain Double Single Barrel Bourbon

Let’s taste it:

🛏 Rested for 15 minutes in a Glencairn glass

👉🏻Nose: Grain, sweet maple, mint, nuts

👉🏻Taste: Caramel, vanilla, cherry

👉🏻Finish: Rye spice, coffee, caramel

Summary

This bourbon is a blend of a single barrel four-year wheated bourbon and a single barrel four-year rye bourbon, which gives a blend of corn, wheat, barley, and rye. Its 45,000-bottle release may make it a little easier to find. The Lux Row press release notes that this blend provides the best of worlds, and there’s no arguing there. The wheated profile takes center stage on the nose and taste, and the rye spice shows itself on the finish, which is as long as a deep kiss. Yep, it’s that good.

Conclusion – Lux Row Four Grain Double Single Barrel Bourbon

The Four Grain Double Single Barrel continues a string of Lux Row-winning releases. This bourbon is worth the price and better than those that retail higher. This is a solid buy, and I’ll look for a bottle.
