{"product_id":"rare-character-brook-hill-the-bridge-11-yr-bourbon","title":"Rare Character Brook Hill 'The Bridge' 11 Year Bourbon","description":"\u003cp\u003eRare Character Brook Hill \"The Bridge\" 11 Year Bourbon is a single-barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey bottled from Barrel No. 0413 at a robust 126.44 proof (63.22% ABV). Pulled from over a decade of maturation, this bourbon delivers concentrated notes of caramelized sugar, dark stone fruit, and deep oak that only come from patient, uncut single-barrel whiskey. If you're the kind of buyer who chases barrel-specific bourbon and wants something with real presence, this is a bottle worth setting aside for a special pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRare Character built its reputation on individuality rather than uniformity, and the Brook Hill program is where that philosophy really shows. Instead of vatting barrels together for a repeatable house profile, each Brook Hill release — like \"The Bridge\" — is bottled from a single cask, with its own name, age, proof, and yield. It's whiskey that tells you exactly what one barrel, and one barrel alone, was capable of after 11 years in the wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toasted oak, brown sugar, dried cherry, a hint of baking spice, faint leather\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Caramelized sweetness, dark fruit compote, cinnamon and clove, rich vanilla, warm oak char\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long, with lingering dark fruit, toasted spice, and a slow fade of char and oak tannin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpirit Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eABV\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e63.22% (126.44 Proof)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVolume\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e750mL\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eAge Statement\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11 Years\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDistillery\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRare Character (Brook Hill Collection)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRegion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eKentucky, USA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBarrel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSingle Barrel No. 0413\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePerfect For\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe dedicated bourbon collector\u003c\/strong\u003e looking to add a genuine single-barrel, cask-strength bottle to their home bar.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecial occasion sipping\u003c\/strong\u003e — this is a bourbon to pour on a milestone night, not a Tuesday nightcap.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGifting for the whiskey lover\u003c\/strong\u003e who already has the well-known names and wants something rarer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBourbon tastings with friends\u003c\/strong\u003e who appreciate comparing barrel-specific character against blended releases.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs Rare Character Brook Hill \"The Bridge\" a single barrel bourbon?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, this is a true single-barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey bottled exclusively from Barrel No. 0413, meaning no other cask was blended in — the flavor profile you get is entirely unique to this one barrel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow strong is this bourbon?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's bottled at cask strength, 126.44 proof (63.22% ABV), making it considerably more potent than standard 80-90 proof bourbons, so a splash of water or a large ice cube can help open up the flavors if you prefer a softer pour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does this bourbon taste like?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExpect concentrated caramelized sweetness, dark dried fruit, warm baking spice, and deep toasted oak, all carried by the extra weight that 11 years of aging and high proof bring to the glass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this bourbon good for mixing or sipping neat?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one is best enjoyed neat or with a single large cube given its age, proof, and complexity, though a small amount can elevate an Old Fashioned for those who want a bolder cocktail experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes Brook Hill different from other Rare Character releases?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrook Hill is Rare Character's single-barrel program, where each release is bottled and named individually rather than blended for consistency, so every barrel — including \"The Bridge\" — offers a one-of-a-kind flavor profile you won't find replicated in another bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eYou must be 21 years of age or older to purchase this product.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rare Character","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53771573920038,"sku":"RARE-CHARACTER-BROOK-HIL-6PXUUW","price":799.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/7951\/6015\/files\/RareCharacterBrookHill_TheBridge_11YearBourbon126.44.webp?v=1787788210","url":"https:\/\/pbexpressliquor.com\/products\/rare-character-brook-hill-the-bridge-11-yr-bourbon","provider":"PB Express","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
