1988 Vintage. Barrel 8. Dated 8-26-1988. Evan Williams Single Barrel — one year older than the two 1989 vintage barrels also in the Wooden Cork collection, the 1988 vintage represents an earlier production year in the Evan Williams Single Barrel program's founding era.
The August 26, 1988 dump date makes Barrel 8 the oldest of the three Evan Williams vintage single barrels currently in stock — Barrel 8 (1988), Barrel 130 (1989), and Barrel 32 (1989). Together these three barrels document consecutive production years from the program's earliest era, with Barrel 8 as the eldest of the set by approximately 13 months from the earliest 1989 barrel.
