Chattanooga Whiskey today announced the next release of their Bottled in Bond Vintage Series: Spring 2018 Vintage. The series is exclusively crafted at their Riverfront Distillery and is a single-season, vintage-dated expression of their Tennessee High Malt style. 

To be labeled Bottled in Bond, a bourbon must be the product of one distillation season and from one distillery. Legally, it must be aged in a federally bonded warehouse for at least four years and bottled at 100 proof.  

Barreled January through June 2018, Chattanooga Whiskey’s Spring 2018 Vintage is crafted from a selection of four unique high malt bourbon mash bills – all made within the same distilling season – and each composed of at  least 25% specialty malted grains. The result is an innovative approach to one of the industry’s most time-honored quality standards, according to a news release from the distillery. 

The Spring 2018 blend includes a small percentage of a new recipe to the series: R18016 and is made with approximately 20% minimally dried ‘green’ malt in its mash bill.

Bottled in Bond: Spring 2018 Vintagewill be available at the Chattanooga Whiskey Experimental Distillery and across TN, GA, FL, TX, IL, IN, SC, LA, KY, AL, and CO at a suggested retail price of $52.99 for a 750ml bottle. More information about each mash bill can be found at chattwhiskey.com/mashbills.
