Baker's 7 Year Old Single Barrel Review

A recent revamp saw this expression lose its wine-bottle-style packaging and notably transitioned it to a single barrel offering. At seven years old and 53.5 percent ABV, it is bold and full of character but doesn’t overwhelm. The palate and nose have a concentrated, sweet and spicy profile, but are slightly less fruity than the previous iteration.
