Casey Jones Distillery Releases FIRST Toasted Barrel Finished Bourbon 

Hopkinsville, KY – June 14th, 2025 — Casey Jones Distillery proudly announces the launch of Toasted Barrel Finished Bourbon – Batch 1, a rich, cask strength expression that marks the fourth installment in its Finished Barrel Series and the distillery’s first-ever toasted barrel release.

Crafted by Master Distiller Arlon “AJ” Casey Jones using the house 96/3/1 mash bill (96% corn, 3% rye, 1% malt), this unfiltered bourbon is finished in toasted American oak barrels that elevate its natural character without added flavoring. The result is a bourbon that’s smooth, layered, and boldly expressive, with standout notes of toasted marshmallow, vanilla, caramelized oak, buttered cornbread, and toasted coconut.

“This one’s all about balance,” said AJ Jones. “Toasting brings warmth and complexity without overpowering what we love about our base bourbon. It’s clean, focused, and built to linger.”

Toasted Barrel Finished Bourbon – Batch 1 is offered at $89.99 per bottle and features collectible packaging consistent with the Finished Barrel Series, including a distinct neck tag design. Only 50 bottles are available for online preorder beginning June 1, with orders shipping after the official public release.
