About Old Carter 13 Year Old Single Barrel Bourbon #85
Founded by husband and wife Mark and Sherri Carter, Old Carter Whiskey Co. is focused on bringing super high-quality and unique small-batch straight rye and bourbon whiskeys to discerning drinkers. The couple started in the wine business, producing fine wine in the Napa Valley. The Carter Cellars Cabernets have garnered numerous awards and has led them towards whiskey.
Their whiskey journey started when they joined a friend from Kentucky in resurrecting the long-absent Kentucky Owl bourbon brand. By the time the brand was sold in 2017, the couple had grown too fond of the spirit to simply let go, diving straight into sourcing, producing, and blending whiskey in Kentucky. It’s a true hands-on family operation that enables them to cultivate their passionate love for whiskey and share it with the world.
An extraordinary single barrel release, to say the least. There are only 124 bottles of this rare 120.9-proof straight bourbon in the world. Barrel #85 is where the magic obviously happened as this 13-years-old is simply incredible.

I was eager to try Old Carter 13 Year Old after hearing so much about it. The nose is inviting with notes of vanilla and oak, while the palate delivers a smooth blend of sweetness and spice. However, I found the finish to be slightly shorter than I expected. Still, it’s an excellent bourbon that’s definitely worth a try!

While Old Carter 13 Year Old Single Barrel Bourbon has some appealing flavors, I felt it didn’t quite live up to the expectations. The oak was quite pronounced, which overshadowed some of the sweeter notes. It’s decent, but I was hoping for more complexity given its age and reputation.

Old Carter 13 Year Old is a solid bourbon! The rich flavors of toasted nuts and dark fruit are delightful, and the mouthfeel is creamy and smooth. I appreciate the craftsmanship behind it, though I think it could benefit from a slightly higher proof to enhance the finish. Overall, a great addition to any bourbon enthusiast’s shelf!
