A Kentucky Distillery 2018 DRFS Passion for Whisky 52.7% 700ml information

Introducing Kentucky Distillery's 2018 DRFS Passion for Whisky, a unique bottling with an alcohol volume of 52.7% and a capacity of 700ml. This whiskey, although still young at 3 years, has already aged gracefully with no need for a longer maturation period. The sharp edges have been smoothed out, leaving a pleasant sweetness of corn and new American oak, along with a hint of spiced gingerbread.

The distillery opted for a bourbon under their own label, as they had never released one before. The taste was the most important factor, and after careful tasting, this whiskey was selected for its unique flavor profile. Made primarily from maize, American whiskey has a distinct taste that is different from traditional malt whisky.

Notes of brioche, gingerbread, ripe bananas, and mirabelles can be detected, along with the scent of wildflowers. With further sniffing, hints of anise and menthol are present. This whiskey is truly unique and difficult to describe but undeniably enjoyable.

This whiskey is a perfect fit for the Passion for Whisky portfolio, and for this special occasion, it has been released as a one-time offering by Duckhammer's Rare & Fine Spirits. The higher alcohol content ensures that the taste buds are awakened immediately, making for an unforgettable tasting experience. Quite OK though it doesn't blow me off my socks. I have the idea that the rye content in this dram is higher than average for a straight bourbon. It's not as coating as some other bourbons, and has quite some "green" notes of juniper and rosemary. If you are looking for a bourbon which is not overly sweet, this could be a good pick!

Reviewer's Opinion

This bourbon is a refreshing departure from the overly sweet bourbons on the market. Its higher rye content and unique green notes of juniper and rosemary provide an intriguing complexity. The combination of sweet and spicy elements, along with a pleasing waxy finish, makes this a remarkable and enjoyable whiskey. Definitely worth trying for those looking for something different in the bourbon category.
