Charles Medley Private Barrel Pick #16 Mon, Aug 22, 22 Charles Medley Private Barrel Pick #16 Charles Medley Garfield’s Beverage private barrel Only 25 barrels were released by Charles Medley Distillery and we were thrilled to secure barrel #16 with Sam Medley himself. Wathen’s has always been a 94 proof bourbon that has been a favorite of ours, and this special release comes in at 114.1 proof. The nose starts with a hint of pepper followed by honey and dark chocolate. On the palate sweet cinnamon followed by an oak note that complements the long finish. This is a Cask Strength bourbon that competes with some of the best.
