Sensory Description:
On the nose, Kentucky Vintage starts with a hint of alcohol, which quickly softens, allowing notes of rich caramel to take center stage, complemented by subtle hints of corn, rye, and a light, welcoming oak. The palate reveals a medium-bodied bourbon with a smooth, buttery texture. Initial sips may carry a touch of heat, though they quickly yield to warm, earthy flavors of oak and a lingering smokiness that’s more pronounced than many bourbons at this price point. The finish is smoky and oaky, providing a solid heft that pairs well with the bourbon’s overall warmth and character.
Distiller's Background:
Kentucky Bourbon Distillers (KBD), also known as Willett Distillery, is known for its commitment to traditional bourbon craftsmanship. While the distillery’s heritage includes celebrated small-batch releases like Rowan’s Creek and Noah’s Mill, Kentucky Vintage remains an unsung hero in their lineup, offering a well-rounded and consistent bourbon. The unique blending of mash bills in Kentucky Vintage achieves a balanced, smoky profile that makes it a versatile and reliable choice for everyday enjoyment.
Serving Suggestions:
Kentucky Vintage Original Sour Mash Straight Bourbon Whiskey is ideal enjoyed neat or on the rocks at around 60-65°F, allowing its warm, smoky notes to shine. For cocktail enthusiasts, this bourbon’s smoky profile holds its own in classic bourbon cocktails like an Old Fashioned or a Manhattan. Its smooth finish also makes it a great base for a bourbon sour, adding depth to the mix of citrus and bitters. Pair it with smoked or grilled meats to enhance its oaky richness, or with sharp cheeses for a bold contrast.
