10. Orphan Barrel 24 year,
The latest Orphan Barrel bourbon is launching, and it will be familiar to fans of the brand. Rhetoric 24 year old follows up on the previous four releases at 20, 21, 22, and 23 years old with one more year of age and a tiny bump in proof to 45.5% ABV. Part of Diageo’s Orphan Barrel series. Since 2014, a new Rhetoric has been released annually, each with an additional year of age and a small bump in proof—and price. (Last year’s release was 23 years old, 45.3% ABV, and $120.) The whiskey was originally distilled at the Bernheim Distillery.
