16 years. Cask strength. Single barrel. Boone County Distilling 16 Year Cask Strength — Jeff Ruby's Pick, a personal barrel selection by the Cincinnati restaurateur and bourbon enthusiast from Boone County's ultra-aged Indiana straight bourbon inventory.
Boone County Distilling Company is located in Burlington, Kentucky — in Boone County, Kentucky's northernmost county bordering Cincinnati, Ohio. Their extended age program produces some of the most mature Kentucky-adjacent bourbon available from an independent distillery, with the 16 Year expression occupying the apex of the lineup.
Jeff Ruby's Pick is a single barrel selection — Jeff Ruby personally chose this specific barrel from Boone County's 16-year inventory, making it both a distillery rarity and a named selector provenance piece. At 16 years and cask strength, this is one of the most age-forward and concentrated expressions available from any independent Kentucky/Indiana bourbon producer.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Deep caramel, dried fruit, leather, and warm oak — 16-year cask strength character.
- Palate: Rich and concentrated at full cask strength — dark fruit, oak, and warm spice.
- Finish: Long and warming — the 16-year maturity through a deeply satisfying close.
