Rabbit Hole Dareringer PX Sherry Cask Bourbon Whiskey 750ml
DescriptionRabbit Hole Dareringer takes their bourbon into Spanish territory with Pedro Ximénez sherry cask finishing. This expression showcases how the intensely sweet PX casks transform their already unique bourbon into something that challenges conventional bourbon boundaries. The result is a daring fusion that lives up to both the Rabbit Hole ethos and the Dareringer name.
The nose immediately shows the PX influence filtered through Rabbit Hole's innovative approach – their distinctive bourbon base is enhanced by rich notes of raisins, figs, and molasses from the sherry casks, but presented with unusual clarity and definition. Dark chocolate and orange peel add sophistication. On the palate, Dareringer delivers a wild ride: the PX finishing creates luscious flavors of brown sugar, dried fruits, and toffee, but Rabbit Hole's distillation style prevents it from becoming cloying, maintaining structure and interest throughout the sweet journey.
The daring finishing succeeds in creating memorable bourbon. The finish is long and luxurious, with PX sweetness gradually giving way to traditional bourbon warmth. This is bourbon for those ready to tumble down a sweet rabbit hole. Whether savored as dessert, paired with chocolate, or used in creative cocktails, Rabbit Hole Dareringer represents fearless finishing that pushes bourbon into new territories while maintaining quality and balance.
