Kentucky Owl Bourbon (Batch #12)

2023 WhiskyFest

Straight: good

Nose Smoky, dried fruit Taste : Baking spices, dried apple, cinnamon. Toffee Finish: The spices stay with you and it’s a dry finish. I love the kentucky owl products but man the price point is a killer. Since it’s a blend of a wide range of aged bourbons it should be a lot lower of a price point.

Exceptionally well blended, the nose is sweet, slightly smokey and with a toffee coloration. The taste is akin to a spiced gingercake with a touch of caramel and butter. A long finish that leads to a dry and woody ending. What can we say? These Single Batch releases are always well crafted, highy drinkable and instant collector’s items. If you have the cash, do yourself a favor and buy a bottle for those extra special occasions.
