Bridle & Bit Single Barrel Double Double Oak Straight Wheated Bourbon Whiskey

BOTTLE 016: 🦄 Cox Creek Distilling Co. Bridle & Bit Single Barrel Double Double Oak Wheated @ 112 🦄 🎉🚨TONIGHT’S REVIEW IS SO OVER THE TOP IT REQUIRES A SADDLE AND A SEATBELT🚨🎉 Ladies, gentlemen, bourbon enthusiasts, and admirers of mythical creatures… get ready, because we’re diving headfirst into a fantastic glass of Bridle & Bit Single Barrel Double Double Oak Straight Wheated Bourbon Whiskey—all of that, yes. Try saying that quickly after a couple of drinks. Or even just once. This amazing bourbon comes from Cox Creek Distilling Co., who—heads up—didn’t actually make it themselves. No, this spirit began its life at the renowned MGP facility in Indiana, the birthplace of many great things, and was then adopted to be matured and aged like ancient warriors in oak. Now, let’s discuss this bottle. Oh my goodness, this isn’t merely a bourbon bottle; it’s a unicorn. Literally. There’s a UNICORN on the label—because apparently, someone in the private barrel club said, “Let’s put a mythical symbol on this thing and call it rare!” Honestly? I approve. The custom front and back labels look like a mix between old fantasy tales and a high-end equestrian shop. Did I contact the distillery for details? You can bet your bottom dollar I did. They vaguely recalled the barrel selection event… but those tasting notes? Gone. Vanished. Just like the unicorn itself. 🦄 But here’s what we do know: 💥 Barrel #001 🔥 112 proof / 56% ABV 🤷‍♂️ All else: Unknown BUT! Here’s the amazing part: for under $150, you can visit Cox Creek, taste SIX different finished bourbons from over 40 barrels, and create your own personalized label like a bourbon magician. That’s right. For less than the price of a show ticket and a snack, you get a whole experience—in Indiana. Take that, Napa. I acquired this bottle (already opened, mostly full, don’t judge) for $91. Most on their website are about $99. Not too shabby for something that might be touched by Pegasus. Let’s get to the flavors: 👃 Nose: cinnamon, citrus peel, and a hint of lilac (yes, floral, but in a strong, outdoorsy-man-who-also-gardens sort of way) 🥃 First sip: cinnamon and sugar, reminiscent of bourbon French toast 🥃 Second sip: honey and pecan—like your grandmother’s kitchen at Christmas 🥃 Third sip: cinnamon and spice with a strong oak presence on the palate Now, is the body a bit thin? Yes, slightly. But it’s doing its best. What redeems it is the second aging in heavily charred oak barrels—double oak, double impact, double the kick of spice and richness. This one is for those who enjoy wheated bourbon but still desire some kick and character. It’s the bourbon equivalent of a velvet boxing glove: a smooth start, a powerful finish, and just enough flair to make you feel sophisticated. 👀 Two major announcements are coming in the video—seriously, they’re huge. Like, “you-might-spit-out-your-whiskey” huge.
