Liquor Depot’s private-barrel selections are personally chosen by Trey Lawson and the Liquor Depot team. The goal is to choose barrels with a distinct profile that customers cannot get from the brand’s standard shelf release.

Bourbon is an American whiskey made from a grain recipe containing at least 51% corn. It is distilled within legal proof limits and aged in new, charred oak containers. Bourbon commonly develops flavors such as caramel, vanilla, baking spice, toasted oak, and fruit.

Whiskey is a distilled spirit made from fermented grain and commonly matured in wood. Bourbon, rye, Scotch whisky, Irish whiskey, Tennessee whiskey, and American single malt are different styles with their own production rules and flavor profiles.

In the United States, rye whiskey is made from a grain recipe containing at least 51% rye. Rye often tastes drier and spicier than bourbon, with notes such as pepper, herbs, citrus, baking spice, and grain. It is a classic choice for a Manhattan or rye Old Fashioned.

Whiskey is the broad category; bourbon is one legally defined type of American whiskey. Every bourbon is whiskey, but not every whiskey is bourbon. Bourbon must meet requirements involving its corn content, production proof, and use of new charred oak.

Tequila is produced in designated regions of Mexico from blue Weber agave. The agave hearts, called piñas, are cooked, crushed, fermented, and distilled. Blanco tequila is generally unaged or briefly rested, while reposado and añejo tequila spend progressively more time in oak.

Tequila is a specific agave spirit made from blue Weber agave in approved tequila-producing regions. Mezcal can be made from a wider range of agave varieties in approved mezcal-producing regions.
