Stock Exchange Club of Los Angeles 10 Year Single Barrel American Whiskey – PourMore Exclusive

A Bi-Coastal Maturation Journey

The Stock Exchange Club of Los Angeles Single Barrel 10 Year American Whiskey offers a distinctive production story that translates directly to the glass. Distilled in Kentucky back in 2015, this premium spirit underwent a unique multi-step maturation process. Following its initial aging and a 12-month vatting period, the whiskey was transferred to California for an additional four years of resting. This bi-coastal journey bridges traditional Kentucky depth with West Coast climate-driven aging, yielding an extraordinarily nuanced 10-year whiskey.

The Power of the Third-Fill Barrel

What makes this specific single barrel exceptional is the deliberate choice of wood. Rebarreled in California into a third-fill cask (which previously held both bourbon and rye), the wood interacts gently with the aged spirit. Instead of dominating the liquid with heavy oak sugars and dark color, this multi-use barrel allows the intrinsic grain character and the double-cask heritage to step forward. The result is a whiskey with a beautiful, lighter straw color and a highly complex, layered flavor profile that avoids any over-oaked bitterness.

Curated Exclusivity by Badwater Brands

Brought to market by Badwater Brands under the historic "Stock Exchange Club of Los Angeles" banner, this release highlights the meticulous art of independent finishing. This single barrel was selected and bottled exclusively for PourMore, making it a rare, limited-allocation offering that delivers top-shelf complexity at a value engineered for true enthusiasts.
