Wolf Spirit Releases Puncher’s Chance 12 Year Old Bourbon
Wolf Spirit’s Puncher’s Chance Bourbon announced its first-ever limited release offering, The D12TANCE Straight Tennessee Bourbon.
Aged for 12 years in traditional stone and wood rickhouses and finished in California Cabernet Sauvignon barrels, 70 barrels of The D12TANCE were sourced from the IJW Whiskey Company in Louisville, Ky. The bourbon was created with a mash bill of 84 percent corn, eight percent malt, eight percent rye and a proprietary yeast strain.
The D12TANCE comes housed in the traditional Puncher’s Chance jet-black bottle with a gentle fade at the bottom to reveal the amber liquid within. The Puncher’s Chance tiger, a common symbol in boxing and MMA fighting, adorns the label in gold leaf.
The brand name of Puncher’s Chance itself is a boxing reference, denoting that almost anyone is possible of a knockout punch, no matter what the odds. The name The D12TANCE is a double entendre – referring both to the age of the liquid and the 12 official rounds in a formal boxing match.
Bottled at 96 proof after two months in French Oak wine barrels, only 2,000 cases were produced for the U.S. market. MSRP is $120 per 750ml bottle. The D12TANCE may be purchased in California, Florida, Kentucky, Colorado, Oklahoma, New Mexico, New York, Tennessee, Georgia, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Missouri, Connecticut and Wisconsin.
