River Roots 8 Year Old Private Single Barrel Select #GE-8-D85 The Dramcode Exclusive 132.34 Proof Ohio Straight Bourbon Whiskey (2026) 75cl

River Roots are relatively new but have great reviews from those who have been fortunate enough to get ahold of some. 

Simply put, single barrel offerings are bottles that all come from the exact same 53 gallon oak barrel. There’s no mixing, blending, or proofing down here; what comes out of the barrel is what you get. Single barrels are special because every barrel is completely unique. When we purchase a group of barrels that were distilled and dumped into each of their own barrels on the same day, the differences can be astounding. The wood of that specific barrel and where a barrel was stored in the Rickhouse can have a huge impact on a product’s final taste and proof. The labels on these bottles are all marked with the specific barrel number, but due to the limited bottle yield of a barrel, they never last long!

About River Roots Barrel Co

Our company roots were planted along the Cuyahoga River by residents of Cleveland with a passion for all spirits (though, admittedly, we completely geek out over bourbon and rye whiskey). We know what a good pour tastes like, so we set out on a mission to find the best barrels of whiskey in the world to share with fellow enthusiasts.

The dream of a boutique whiskey establishment began with Ryan Lintz and Tom Gray sipping bourbon in the backyard. Ryan and Michael Boland, who had met through the Cleveland Bourbon Club, then began seriously investigating how this wild idea could become a reality. Michael Boland’s existing connections with Cleveland celebrity chef Michael Symon helped to forge great relationships among those who would become the key members of the team. River Roots was created by a group of people both passionate and knowledgeable about whiskey with the simple mission of curating the best selection of spirits.

At River Roots, every barrel that gets selected must meet the extremely high standards of our team. River Roots is a brand built on integrity and a commitment to making sure that if our name is on the label, our customers know that they are getting a top tier product. We aim to select the best of what the United States and the world has to offer and bring it straight to you.
