The awakening continued.

The same barrel had more to say. A later cask-strength pull emerged at 135 proof, preserving the explosive profile that defined the discovery while recording the barrel at a different moment in its final chapter. It is not a different origin story; it is the second cask-strength record of the same remarkable barrel.

The awakening continued.

THE KEEPER'S LOG

A second cask-strength moment.

One barrel, three expressions. This second pull was to empty the barrel and became the 135 proof version of Grape Awakening as well as the experimental proofed expression known as Welch's Antique 107.
