Description
Doc Holliday 8 Year Oloroso Sherry Cask Finish Bourbon nicknamed “I’m Your Huckleberry”, is a small-batch Kentucky straight bourbon given a finishing run in Oloroso sherry casks for dried-fruit depth and nutty sweetness.
Process & Profile
This expression is aged 8 years in new charred American oak, then finished in Oloroso sherry casks. It’s bottled around 46% ABV / 92 proof in 750ml — an approachable proof that lets the sherry influence read clearly without being masked.
Nose: Caramel, dried figs, toasted oak, roasted almond, and a subtle sherry sweetness.
Palate: Brown sugar, roasted nuts, dark chocolate, baking spice, and layered Oloroso raisin.
Finish: Long, warming, and smooth with lingering sweet-nutty notes.
A sherry-finished bourbon at a sub-cask-strength proof is unusual — the 8 years of American oak give it structure, while the Oloroso finish adds dried fruit and nut without pushing the whiskey into dessert-wine territory.
Neat or with a splash of water to fully unfold the sherry layer. Excellent with dark chocolate, roasted nuts, or a manchego-and-fig pairing.
