Kentucky Owl Batch #11 Bourbon 700mL
Kentucky Owl Bourbon dates all the way back to 1879, when Charles Mortimer Dedman founded the C.M. Dedman Distillery. Kentucky Owl was produced until Prohibition forced the distillery to close - and it never reopened. Fast-forward to 2010, Dixon Dedman decided to reignite the Kentucky Owl brand that was created by his great-great-grandfather many moons ago. The whiskey itself is made with casks sourced from various distilleries and blended by Dixon, and is bottled at cask strength, resulting in a full-bodied flavour profile. Kentucky Owl has impressed many already, and the wheels are in motion for a big ol' Bardstown-based distillery and visitors centre to be created.
[The Kentucky Owl Bourbon Batch No. 10 is said to be a mix of their oldest, oakiest, and most valuable barrels, as well as more young, fruity, and spice-driven selections, according to those behind it. It's bottled at a robust 120.2 proof, with official tasting notes describing flavors of sweet caramel, toffee, and vanilla, as well as slight floral fruity notes and a kick of spice on the back of the palate.]
