Kentucky Owl Batch #9 Bourbon 700mL
Kentucky Owl Batch #9 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.
Batch #9 has a great complex sweetness of fruit and creamy notes across the front palate, then crawls back to some more significant oak notes in the middle, before the spice of the finish spreads across the back of the palate.
