What makes this release so distinctive is the “PROOFED IN BARREL” process the brand has introduced with this expression. Instead of proofing in tanks prior to bottling, at the time of the 2nd barrel fill, Frank August “PROOFED IN BARREL,” so at the point of maturation, each barrel would be 95 proof. Each secondary barrel was then aged an additional 12-14 months before being dumped and batched.

The result is a beautiful, full, and complex whiskey. This considered process underscores Frank August’s dedication to crafting distinctive and innovative “one-of-one” expressions of American whiskey.
