45% | 90 Proof | 750ml

Sometimes the Best Things Aren’t Planned

Char 5 was never intended to exist.

Originally aged using Char 4 barrels, production took an unexpected turn when those barrels were no longer available. With no option to pause the process, Char 5 barrels, known for their deeper char and bolder influence, became the only path forward.

The result was something entirely its own.

Aging in Char 5 barrels brought forward deeper color, richer structure, and a more pronounced oak character, while maintaining the smooth, balanced profile Irons One is known for. The heavier char draws out intensified flavor and complexity, creating a bourbon that stands apart from anything released before.

Char 5 exists because of timing and circumstance, shaped by experience and trust in the craft. Once these barrels are gone, this exact expression cannot be recreated.

Each sip reflects the enduring spirit of Alabama bourbon, bold, uncompromising, and distinctly Irons One.
