Description

The Redwood Empire Pipe Dream Cask Strength Bourbon Whiskey is the boldest expression of Redwood Empire’s flagship bourbon—bottled uncut and unfiltered straight from the barrel to deliver maximum flavor intensity. Rich, layered, and powerful, it combines classic bourbon sweetness with vibrant fruit and spice, amplified by its high proof. Despite its strength, it remains remarkably balanced, offering deep caramel, cherry cola, and roasted nut complexity. For bourbon enthusiasts who appreciate cask-strength releases with real personality, Pipe Dream delivers both power and polish.
