Flavor Profile Differences
Rye spice is the dividing line here.
- Stellum Bourbon: Barrell's lower-priced, cask-strength line. It drinks gentler than its proof, with vanilla and caramel on top of cinnamon, clove and a long, spicy finish.
- Zackariah Harris: A bottom-shelf Kentucky straight bourbon, mostly sold in liters and handles. Simple caramel and oak with a short, warm finish.
Which One Should You Choose?
- Go with Stellum Bourbon if you want a cask-strength, multi-state blend that drinks easier than its proof with the texture that comes from skipping chill filtration.
- Go with Zackariah Harris if you want a simple Kentucky bourbon for mixing at a significantly lower price point.
Best enjoyed neat, old-fashioned (Stellum Bourbon); highball, cocktails (Zackariah Harris).
