I.W. Harper Cabernet Cask Reserve is a Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey bottled at 90 proof (45% ABV). Produced by the historic I.W. Harper brand and bottled at the renowned Stitzel-Weller Distillery in Louisville, Kentucky, this bourbon is first aged for four years in new charred American oak barrels, then finished in California Cabernet Sauvignon wine casks to impart a distinctive layer of dark fruit character.

On the nose, the whiskey delivers caramel-forward aromas with dark cherry, sweet raisin, black raspberry, crème brûlée, vanilla, and brown sugar. The palate continues with dark cherry and black raspberry alongside caramel, vanilla, graham cracker, and crème brûlée, culminating in a chocolate cordial cherry finish. The finish is medium in length, leaving a warm, sweet impression with light spice. This expression offers a crowd-pleasing, approachable profile that blends classic bourbon sweetness with nuanced wine cask influence.
