Old Bardstown 101 Straight Bourbon Whiskey - 750ml

Founded in 1936, the Willett Distillery is a private and family-owned operation with a rich history of producing quality whiskey. Old Bardstown 90 Proof Kentucky Straight Bourbon was released in 2016 together with a Bottled in Bond Bourbon. It's distilled at the Willett distillery from a mash bill of 72% corn, 13% rye, and 15% malted barley. Then, the whiskey spends at least 4 years in new charred American oak casks before being bottled at 90 proof. The whiskey features a classic bourbon taste profile with notes of caramel, oak, vanilla, and floral undertones. The labels are reproductions of original labels from the time when Thompson Willett was president.

On the palate, Old Bardstown Estate Bourbon 101 Proof unfolds with a bold and full-bodied character. The high-proof nature amplifies the rich flavors of caramel and vanilla, while the influence of charred oak adds layers of complexity. Notes of dark fruit and a hint of peppery spice contribute to a nuanced and satisfying taste profile that lingers on the palate.

The finish, is enduring and warm, leaving a lasting impression of the bourbon's depth and intensity.
