Double Eagle Very Rare 20 Year Old Bourbon Whiskey 2026 Release

Aged for an astonishing two decades, this Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey spends twice as long in oak as the standard Eagle Rare. To perfectly balance the intense oak influence gathered over 20 years, the 2026 release is bottled at a meticulously chosen 101 Proof (50.5% ABV). It is presented in a breathtaking crystal decanter featuring two intricately sculpted glass eagles—one resting inside the bottle and one perched atop the stopper—housed in a luxurious presentation box that illuminates upon opening.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Incredibly deep and complex. Rich aromas of dark cocoa, toasted Madagascar vanilla, and deeply seasoned oak are lifted by a hint of dark cherry and butterscotch.
• Palate: Viscous, elegant, and perfectly balanced. The 101 proof delivers a rich, robust wave of dark caramel, roasted pecans, and warm baking spices, all beautifully integrated with sweet, aged leather and antique oak.
• Finish: Exceptionally long and memorable. It leaves a sophisticated, warming trail of sweet dark chocolate, seasoned oak, and a lingering touch of black pepper.

Why Choose Double Eagle Very Rare?

• Two Decades of Maturation: Surviving 20 years in Kentucky oak without becoming over-oaked is a remarkable feat, resulting in a bourbon of unparalleled depth and smoothness.
• Breathtaking Presentation: The custom crystal decanter and internally lit presentation box make this one of the most visually stunning bottles ever released.
• Extreme Rarity: Produced in painfully small quantities, acquiring a bottle of the 2026 release is a rare triumph for even the most connected whiskey hunters.
