BBT - Conviction Double Oak 1929

The crew discusses and reviews the Conviction Double Oak 1929 from Southern Grace Distillers. A sour mash bourbon in the great tradition, 1929 Double Oak is aged in the original 1929 prison dorm at Southern Grace. After two years, the bourbon is harvested and then re-barreled in new, charred American white oak casks. The twice barreling enhances the depth of flavors as it matures and refines the bourbon, making it both smoother and more intense. Conviction Double Oak 1929 is bottled unfiltered, uncut at barrel strength so the full effect of double barreling is present in every glass.
