Dickel Tabasco Barrel Finish<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dickel is a well-known name in the world of Tennessee whiskeys, and Dickel Tabasco Barrel Finish is a unique and fun twist on the classic from this distiller. This whiskey comes from Dickel\u2019s original recipe, which is then placed in old tabasco pepper barrels and aged for an additional 30 days. This process adds a spicy and somewhat smoky flavor to the whiskey <\/a>as well as some sweet undertones. It\u2019s bottled in a glass bottle that is designed to look similar to a tabasco bottle to finish off the whole theme. Although the aging process means that it cannot really be labeled as a whiskey anymore, this is a fun gift for any dad who would like something a little out of the box.
