Gold Bar Diamond Edition 18 Year Old Blended American Whiskey 750ml is a 95-proof collaboration between Gold Bar Whiskey and Los Angeles jeweler Kyle Chan. Gold Bar describes the release as a special blend drawn from a collection of 18-year-old whiskies. The blend is finished in French oak Cognac barrels and then further treated with toasted French oak staves. The producer lists the finished whiskey at 47.5% ABV / 95 proof in a 750ml bottle.
The rectangular gold bottle carries the Kyle Chan name above the Gold Bar mark and identifies the liquid as extra-aged whiskey with a Cognac-barrel and toasted-oak-stave finish. Its front panel also prints the 18-year age, 95 proof, 47.5% alcohol by volume, and 750ml capacity. Gold Bar calls the result smooth and elegant, while the two-stage French oak treatment is the release’s defining production detail. The Diamond Edition is a single 750ml bottle with the defining gold-bar profile, distinct from Gold Bar’s standard expressions.
