Hillrock Solera Aged Bourbon Pedro Ximénez Cask Finish 112.3 Proof Whiskey Library Barrel Pick 750ml

Description
Hillrock’s Solera Aged Bourbon is already renowned for its layered character, created through a true solera system and sherry-cask finishing. This Whiskey Library private barrel takes it further: after Solera maturation, it was finished in Pedro Ximénez (PX) sherry casks, adding rich notes of fig, walnut, and candied fruit over Hillrock’s caramel-maple core. Bottled at cask strength, 112.3 proof (56.15% ABV), this single-barrel release delivers pure, uncut flavor. Extremely limited — once it’s gone, it’s gone.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Caramel, vanilla, maple candy, dried fig, orange oils, toasted walnut, clove.

• Palate: Full-bodied and silky; brown sugar, toffee, roasted corn, raisin, PX sweetness (dates, sultanas), baking spice.

• Finish: Long and warming; butterscotch, candied fruit, nutty sherry, gentle rye spice.

Why It’s Special

• True Solera aging — Hillrock pioneered the method for bourbon in 2012.

• PX sherry cask finish for darker fruit, extra viscosity, dessert-like richness.

• Single barrel, cask strength — uncut and undiluted, straight from the barrel.

Product Story
Hillrock put New York craft bourbon on the map with Solera aging and sherry cask finishes. Our private barrel leans decadent with PX — think fig jam on warm brioche drizzled in toffee, with Hillrock’s signature spice for balance. It’s one of the richest Hillrock profiles we’ve ever tasted.

Serving & Pairing
Best enjoyed neat in a Glencairn after 5–8 minutes of air. A few drops of water reveal cocoa and orange-peel notes. Perfect with dark chocolate, pecan pie, or a blue-cheese board.
