“These unique finishing processes are exciting whiskey drinkers around the globe,” said Head Blender Jesse Parker. “Doc Swinson’s is one of the only whiskey brands in the world to use the solera method and we encourage our customers to “save a dram’ of each bottle,’ said Main, “experiencing the slow evolution of the whiskey is a treat in and of itself.” This finishing technique allows for continual aging of the whiskey while producing a rich and flavorful dram with each pull. The solera design is derived from the Spanish sherry aging process in which barrels are stacked in a pyramid and a fraction of each barrel is pulled out over time, starting at the top and cascading its way to the bottom, until it is ultimately ready for bottling. This finishing technique allows for the artful mingling of the bourbon blend while teasing out delicate flavors from the finishing casks, resulting in a smooth, sweet, luxurious, and complex pour.ĭoc Swinson’s Alter Ego Solera Aged Rye Whiskey is created by aging a blend of four- to six-year-old straight rye whiskeys in a rum cask solera. Created by aging a blend of six-year-old straight bourbons in the style of Scottish Whisky distillers, using Pedro Ximenez Sherry Butts, Oloroso Sherry Butts, and Cognac Puncheons, the finished bourbon is then blended and rested in ex-cognac foeders to finish the marrying process. One place you can see these techniques is in Doc Swinson’s Alter Ego Series Triple Cask Bourbon. Along with their ability to source phenomenal bourbon and whiskey such as the 15-year Kentucky bourbon, they also put together some unique finishing techniques based upon old-world traditions, borrowed from Scotland and Spain. We’re selling out before bottles even hit the shelves in many places.”ĭoc Swinson’s Whiskey has made a name for itself throughout Texas, California, Georgia, Tennessee, and many other states over the last few years as a prime offering of American straight whiskies.
