Cigar Batch

Starlight Cigar Batch Bourbon is a bold and distinctive expression crafted for those who appreciate richly layered whiskey experiences. This limited-release bourbon begins with estate-distilled whiskey produced using Starlight’s traditional sweet mash process and double pot distillation on a Vendome copper still. Carefully selected barrels of mature bourbon are blended and then finished in Brazilian Amburana oak casks — a rare and highly aromatic hardwood known for its intense spice and exotic character. The result is a deeply expressive bourbon designed to complement the richness and complexity of a fine cigar while remaining balanced and enjoyable on its own.

The Amburana Finish
Brazilian Amburana oak is one of the most distinctive woods used in whiskey maturation. Native to South America, this rare hardwood imparts intense aromatics and warming spice that differ dramatically from traditional American oak. By finishing mature bourbon in Amburana casks, the whiskey develops bold layers of cinnamon-like spice, toasted sweetness, and exotic wood character. The influence of this unique oak creates a whiskey with remarkable aroma and depth, making Cigar Batch one of the most distinctive expressions in the Starlight finishing program.
