Exploring the Legacy of Old Charter Oak Whiskey
In 1874, Adam and Ben Chapeze embarked on a journey that would lead to the creation of the renowned Old Charter whiskey brand. Paying tribute to the iconic white oak tree that stands as a symbol of American heritage, Old Charter Oak is a testament to the indispensable role of oak barrels in the crafting of exceptional American Whiskey. Each expression of Old Charter Oak unveils a distinct palette of flavors, shaped by the influence of a diverse range of oak varieties.
Crafted at the esteemed Buffalo Trace Distillery, this Bourbon acquires its distinctive character through maturation in the finest oak barrels sourced from Canton Cooperage. Serving as the distiller's unsung ally, the oak barrel gradually imparts its essence to the spirit, with the quality of the wood providing a canvas for the distiller to tailor the flavor profile to perfection. Sourced from the prime forests of American white oak, the trees are carefully transformed into staves, meticulously sorted and handpicked for their quality. Following a specific stacking method at the Canton Kentucky wood yard, the staves undergo a meticulous seasoning process in the open air to ensure ideal air exposure and moisture levels.
Indulge in this exceptional bourbon that pays homage to the Finest Oak, and raise a toast to its remarkable evolution from the forest to the barrel, culminating in the creation of a revered bourbon.
