The Story
135.2 proof. 14 years. Batch 8. Old Carter Straight American Whiskey — the oldest age-statement batch expression in the current Wooden Cork Old Carter collection, and the most powerful in the batch program at 135.2 cask strength proof.
Old Carter Batch 8 at 14 years pushes the batch program's age ceiling beyond the 12-year Batch 1 also in the Wooden Cork collection — two additional years of American straight whiskey maturation producing deeper oak integration, greater dried fruit concentration, and a complexity the younger batches cannot match. At 135.2 proof, Batch 8 is also the most powerful Old Carter batch expression currently in the collection, matching the intensity of the 12 Year Single Barrel #1 (134.9 proof).
