About Starlight Distillery Bourbon Whiskey Finished In Champagne R
Starlight Distillery Bourbon Whiskey Finished in Champagne Barrels is a high-proof bourbon (110 proof, 55% ABV) from Huber Orchards, Inc., featuring a unique finish in Champagne barrels that infuses bright, effervescent fruit notes into a robust bourbon base. What makes it special is the seamless integration of Champagne's warm cherry, citrus, peach, and apricot aromas with classic caramel, vanilla, and oak profiles, creating a festive twist without overpowering the whiskey's character—ideal for celebrations like New Year's Eve. Produced at the family-owned Starlight Distillery in Indiana, it's grain-to-glass with innovative finishes that set it apart. Perfect for bourbon enthusiasts seeking experimentation, it's bolder and fruitier than standard bourbons but more restrained than heavily sweetened finishes like rum barrels. At $55.50 for 750ml, it offers excellent value in the finished bourbon category, punching above typical high-proof releases with elegance and complexity.
