ABOUT BROOK HILL AND THE "MUSIC CITY" BARREL

Brook Hill is the highest tier of the Rare Character Whiskey Company portfolio: a revived pre-Prohibition Kentucky brand name reserved for the oldest and most complex casks the team sources. Every Brook Hill release is a single barrel, bottled at full natural cask strength, and assigned a codename rather than a batch number. XMUSICXCITY places this barrel in Nashville's orbit — bold, expressive, unmistakably American rye.
