Why Barrel-Aged Coffee Works in a Cocktail

Cincy’s Shot Whiskey Barrel Coffee starts as a single-origin Guatemala coffee, aged in whiskey barrels to absorb subtle notes of oak, vanilla, and warm spice. When brewed and chilled, it becomes the perfect complement to bourbon, enhancing depth without overpowering the drink.

Instead of masking the coffee flavor, this recipe lets it shine.
