Rabbit Tale Dareringer is a rare beast indeed – a straight Kentucky Bourbon that’s been finished in Casknolia Pedro Ximénez Sherry casks, and one of the only of its kind.
Giving you the best of both worlds, this balanced expression blends modern and traditional whiskey making, and has already taken out a flurry of gold medals.
Earning itself back-to-back Double Gold at San Fran, and then another Gold at the World Whiskies Awards, this mid-February release is going to tease you then delight you. Non-chill filtered, a natural amber colour and smooth as smooth can be at 46.5% ABV, this superb dram shows off with sweet tangerine, creamy caramel and dark cherries. Alongside you’ll find hints of almond and vanilla, with a mouthful of forest berries to follow. There’s a gloriously chewy twist, creating a long, creamy finish.
Rabbit Tale’s mouth-watering, wheated Bourbon is made up of 65% corn, 25% wheat and 10% malted barley, then aged in alligator char barrels (the heaviest char of them all) to really pack in that flavour. Then for the cherry on top, they’ve hand-selected Pedro Ximénez casks from Spain’s artisanal Casknolia Cooperage, to take this from Bourbon to bedazzling.
It’s as silky smooth as they come, and it’s launching in Australia exclusively to Club Members as a mid-month treat.

Rabbit Hole’s History
Rabbit Hole Distillery is a modern American whiskey producer, founded in 2012 in Louisville, Kentucky.
It sticks to strictly small batches and, unlike traditional Kentucky producers who strictly copy legacy recipes, uses unique grain combinations featuring specialty malted grains such as honey-malted barley and malted wheat.
Hailed as "one of the most innovative producers of American whiskey", this is one stop on the official Bourbon Trail that's worth seeing.
