Single barrel #75 at 118.6 proof, thirteen years old, bottled uncut and non-chill filtered in Frankfort, Kentucky — bottle 73 of only 151 drawn from the cask.
Old Carter Whiskey Co. is the project of Mark and Sherri Carter, who built Kentucky Owl into a cult brand before selling it in 2017 and starting again under their own name. They don't operate a distillery; they source and select mature Kentucky whiskey, and everything goes out at barrel strength with no chill filtration. Sherri hand-labels the bottles, which is why the barrel number, bottle number, ABV and proof are written by hand on the front of this one.
At 59.3% ABV, barrel 75 sits at the gentler end of Old Carter's barrel-proof range — still undiluted, but approachable enough to drink neat without the heat getting in the way of thirteen years of oak.
Tasting Notes

- Palate: Full-bodied and concentrated — caramelized sugar, vanilla, seasoned oak, dark fruit and warm spice.
- Finish: Long and powerful, carrying lingering oak, caramel, spice and sweet vanilla.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Who makes Old Carter whiskey? Mark and Sherri Carter, the Napa winemakers behind Carter Cellars who resurrected Kentucky Owl and sold it in 2017. Old Carter is an independent bottler rather than a distillery — they source and select mature barrels, then release everything at barrel strength, non-chill filtered and hand-labeled.
- How limited is barrel #75? 151 bottles came out of the cask in total. This is number 73, written by hand on the front label alongside the barrel number and proof.
- Is 118.6 proof high for a barrel-strength bourbon? It's moderate by barrel-proof standards — many run past 125. Thirteen-year barrels often land here because the angel's share pulls proof down over time in cooler warehouse positions, and the practical effect is a bottle you can drink neat without water.
