The Story
106.9 proof. Batch #2. Old Carter Bourbon Whiskey — the second batch in the Old Carter founding bourbon series, following the founding Batch #1 (108.9 proof, also in the collection) and preceding Batch #3 (106.8 proof, also in stock).
The three founding Old Carter bourbon batches in the current Wooden Cork collection — Batch #1 (108.9), Batch #2 (106.9), Batch #3 (106.8) — span the early production history of the program Mark and Sherri Carter established after building Kentucky Owl into one of America's most respected independent bottlers. Having all three founding batches simultaneously available is unusual and documents the full proof progression of Old Carter's earliest bourbon releases: 108.9 → 106.9 → 106.8, a gradual narrowing as the program refined its selection criteria.
