Fort Hamilton Double Barrel is a blend of two straight bourbons, put together by the Fort Hamilton Distillery in Brooklyn. Its importer, Skurnik, says one part is distilled at Taconic Distillery in New York from New York grain, the other by MGP in Indiana, and both are high in rye.
It is bottled at 46% (92 proof) without chill filtering. The rye backbone gives vanilla and caramel, then cinnamon, ginger and a maple-tinged finish.
For a New York bourbon made for cocktails, Fort Hamilton is our pick. For a New York bourbon made entirely from corn, choose Hudson Bright Lights, Big Bourbon; for an older Brooklyn blend, see Widow Jane 10 Year.
Use it in a Manhattan, an Old Fashioned or a Whiskey Sour, or sip it on the rocks.
We carry it in the 750ml size. More bottles are under bourbon, and the rest of our whiskey is a click away. Pick it up at our Brooklyn store or get same-day delivery across NYC.
