Parker’s Heritage Collection 14 Year Old Barrel Finished Single Malt Whiskey is a groundbreaking release in the Parker’s Heritage series and a true departure from tradition. As the 15th Edition in the collection, this expression marks the first time Heaven Hill has released an American single malt whiskey under the Parker’s Heritage name. Distilled from 100% malted barley and aged for 13 years in new charred oak barrels before being finished for an additional year in Pedro Ximénez sherry casks, this whiskey blends American innovation with old-world elegance.
Rich, refined, and deeply complex, this bottle pays tribute to Parker Beam’s pioneering spirit while expanding the boundaries of what American whiskey can be.
Available now at Whiskey Caviar, this is a one-of-a-kind collector’s gem for fans of both single malt and barrel-finished American whiskeys.
